Former President Donald Trump said he plans to keep his scheduled appearance at the National Rife Association’s annual meeting in Houston on Friday despite the mass shooting at a Texas elementary school on Tuesday.
“America needs real solutions and real leadership in this moment, not politicians and partisanship,” Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday. “That’s why I will keep my longtime commitment to speak in Texas at the NRA Convention and deliver an important address to America.”
