President Trump CANCELS trip to Missouri due to Hurricane Florence

President Donald Trump was scheduled to hold a "Make America Great Again" Rally in Cape Girardeau, Missouri on September 13th campaigning for Republican Josh Hawley ahead of the Midterm Elections in which Attorney General Hawley will face Senator McCaskill in the heated Missouri US Senate Race - it has now been cancelled due to Category 3 Hurricane Florence barreling toward the Carolina Coast.

The following is a release from the campaign:
