The event comes as in-person campaign events and rallies are beginning to get rescheduled after the lockdowns due to the coronavirus crisis.
Trump last week held a rally in Tulsa, Okla., among other appearances, and has more planned. On Saturday, it was announced that Vice President Pence had postponed upcoming events in Arizona and Florida due to spikes of coronavirus cases in those states.
