Trump, who visited France last year, has nixed the idea of a state dinner in the past.

“I would not be throwing [Chinese President Xi Jinping] a dinner,” Trump said during his 2016 presidential campaign, referring to a 2015 state visit then-President Obama held for the Chinese president.

“I would get him a McDonald’s hamburger and say we’ve got to get down to work,” Trump said at the time.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said last month there wasn’t a “singular reason” Trump hadn’t held a state dinner during his administration’s first year.

CNN reported Monday that Macron would be the honoree at Trump's first state visit, with an announcement coming as soon as later this week.
