Trump said Thursday, August 29, it's "very important" for him to be in Washington to deal with the storm, adding, "Our highest priority is the safety and security of the American people in the path of the hurricane."
President Donald Trump said Thursday that he was pulling out of attending events in Poland to mark the 80th anniversary of the start of World War II so that he could ensure all federal resources were focused on the arrival of Hurricane Dorian, which was heading to Florida from the Caribbean.
At the start of a White House Rose Garden event to launch the U.S. Space Command, Trump announced that Vice President Mike Pence would take his place in Warsaw.
"It's something very important for me to be here, the storm. Looks like it could be a very, very big one indeed," he said.
