“Crooked Hillary's bad judgement forced her to announce that she would go to Charlotte on Saturday to grandstand. Dem pols said no way, dumb!” Trump wrote in a tweet.

NBC News on Friday reported that Clinton planned to visit the city, which has been racked by protests this week in the wake of a fatal police shooting.

Later that day, in an interview with CNN, Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts asked both presidential nominees to refrain from visiting the city until the unrest subsided.

"We appreciate the support of the candidates. We appreciate that they are concerned about Charlotte," Roberts said. "At this point, we do have very stretched resources for security and they are working around the clock.”

“If there would be a way to delay those visits in terms of giving us a chance to get our city back to order and back to more of a state of normalcy, that would probably be ideal."

Clinton spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri later announced that the campaign would be pushing the trip back a week.

“After further discussion with community leaders, we have decided to postpone Sunday’s trip as to not impact the City’s resources,” Palmieri said in a statement.

“She will plan to visit Charlotte next Sunday, provided circumstances allow. In the meantime her prayers are with the people of Charlotte during these difficult days.”
