President Donald Trump will address the National Rifle Association’s upcoming 147th Annual Meeting in Dallas, Texas this week.
The Dallas Morning News reports that Trump will be in the city on Friday, a day after visiting Sutherland Springs, Texas, site of a church shooting that left 26 dead last November. The meeting, set to run through the weekend, is expected to see over 80,000 attend and 800 exhibitors spread across more than 20 acres of convention floor across the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center.
The occasion will be the fourth time Trump has addressed the group’s Leadership Forum in as many years, coming on the heels of a 2017 address as president and two previous visits while on the campaign trail to the White House. Other speakers confirmed for the event are Vice President Mike Pence, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts, and both of the Lone Star State’s U.S. Senators– Ted Cruz and John Cornyn — all Republicans.
As at last year’s forum, the U.S. Secret Service will have jurisdiction at the 7,400-seat Convention Center Arena and have banned all weapons
