President Donald Trump will make stops in two South Florida cities on Friday, visiting a part of the country that has quickly become a hotbed in the battle with the coronavirus pandemic.
Air Force One landed with Trump on board at Miami International Airport shortly after 12 p.m., where he was met by a group that included Miami-Dade Mayor, Carlos Gimenez, and Doral Mayor, Juan Carlos Bermudez.
Trump attended an event at U.S. Southern Command in Doral and reviewed the advance of a counternarcotics operation in the Caribbean during the visit.
After that, the President attended a roundtable event at a Doral church where he will spoke with Cuban and Venezuelan dissidents before taking a short flight to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
At the campaign-organized event focusing on Venezuela, Trump criticized former President Barack Obama’s efforts to lift some sanctions against Cuba and warned that the presumptive Democratic nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, would take a similar approach and even embrace socialism domestically.
