President Donald Trump has canceled an expected trip to his resort in Bedminster, N.J., this weekend amid the ongoing nationwide protests
.
Trump had been planning to travel this weekend to his resort for his first overnight trip since the coronavirus outbreak in March, according to two Republicans familiar with his plans. But since he made those plans, thousands of Americans, including some just outside the White House, have taken to the streets to protest police brutality and entrenched racism in the wake of the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man killed at the hands of Minnesota police.
Democratic New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy declined to discuss Bedminster's security at a news conference in Trenton, N.J., on Thursday. But he acknowledged protests were likely this weekend.
