Quick Glance: Trump Event in Wilmington Canceled Due to Severe Weather
  • The planned campaign rally for former President Donald Trump in Wilmington had to be canceled due to the threat of inclement weather.

  • Shortly before 7 p.m., Trump was supposed to take the stage, but he informed the crowd that the event needed to be canceled due to an impending storm.

  • The storm brought strong winds and hail, leading to the cancellation of the rally, which was meant to be Trump's first major campaign event since the start of his criminal trial in New York City.

  • As Trump shifted his views on abortion, the Democratic National Committee seized his visit to criticize him for his abortion policies.
