Trump cancels Poland trip as Hurricane Dorian gains strength
None
U.S. President Donald Trump canceled a visit to Poland on Thursday and Florida's governor expanded a state of emergency to prepare for Hurricane Dorian, which is forecast to make landfall on the Atlantic coast Monday as a dangerous Category 4 storm.
Trump said Vice President Mike Pence would make the trip to Poland in his place so that he could remain in the United States to make sure federal resources were properly directed at the arriving storm.
"It's something very important for me to be here. The storm looks like it could be a very, very big one indeed," the president said.
