President Trump Planning To Hold MAGA Rally In Florida Panhandle
TALLLAHASSEE (CBSMiami/NSF) – President Donald Trump will hold a rally next week in Bay County, part of a heavily Republican region that could be important for his 2020 re-election campaign.
Trump is scheduled to appear at 7 p.m. Central time May 8 at the Aaron Bessant Park Amphitheater in Panama City Beach, his campaign announced Monday.
While Northwest Florida votes heavily for Republican candidates, Trump also will be visiting a region that is struggling to recover from the Oct. 10 Hurricane Michael.
Large parts of Bay County were devastated by the Category 5 storm, and state and local officials are calling for more federal assistance.
