President Donald Trump canceled his weekend golf plans in Bedminster, New Jersey, citing 'government circumstances' as the reason. He is instead staying in DC for the entirety of the weekend to attend to 'important' official business. The President also announced he will miss his son, Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson's wedding celebration in the Caribbean.
President Donald Trump abruptly canceled his golfing plans in Bedminster , New Jersey , over the Memorial Day Weekend due to mysterious ' government circumstances .
' Taking to Truth Social on Friday, the commander-in-chief revealed he will be staying in DC for the entirety of the weekend, citing vague but urgent official business. Trump is also missing his son, Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson's wedding celebration in the Caribbean this weekend - after they quietly tied the knot in Florida, the Daily Mail first revealed.
The President's sudden cancellation of his holiday travel plans to Bedminster has sparked intense speculation about a brewing international crisis.
'I feel it is important for me to remain in Washington, DC, at the White House during this important period of time,' Trump added, saying his 'love for the United States of America' did not allow him to travel this weekend. The White House did not detail the 'important' reasons for Trump to stay in the Oval Office beyond changing his official schedule. And the administration's silence is only fueling questions.
Axios reported that Trump gathered his national security team for a meeting on Friday as he 'seriously considers' new strikes on Iran. The President has mentioned, leading up to the weekend, that his son's wedding was 'bad timing,' a phrase that is now prompting deep concerns inside Washington for a possible escalation of war with Iran.
'You know this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things. That's one I can't win on. If I do attend, I get killed.
If I don't attend, I get killed by the fake news,' Trump told reporters. Today, Trump reiterated that Iran is 'dying to make a deal' and once again mentioned that Iran 'cannot have a nuclear weapon.
' Trump has warned earlier in the week that the US will 'have to do something very drastic' if a deal cannot be reached to resolve the nuclear standoff.

Either we'll have a deal or we're going to do some things that are a little bit nasty, but hopefully that won't happen,' Trump said. Earlier this week, President Trump made a last-minute decision to call off a full-scale military strike against Iran. Trump asserted that any potential agreement would require Iran to forfeit its highly enriched uranium.
'We will get it,' Trump said of the material, adding that the US would likely destroy it. 'We're not going to let them have it. ' Trump also addressed the situation surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, emphasizing that the critical maritime route must remain open and free of transit fees. 'We want it free.
We don't want tolls. It's an international waterway,' Trump said.

'It's a lot of money,' he said. Vice President JD Vance struck a similar tone on Tuesday during a White House press briefing, arguing that the Iran conflict is not a 'forever war.
' He said that the administration is 'very aware' of rising gas prices, noting they are a 'temporary' increase.
