"The president will be here for the Daytona 500. That is all of the information I have at this time," Joanne Magley, a spokeswoman for Daytona Beach International Airport wrote in an email.

When told that Magley had confirmed that Trump would be attending, Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood said his agency is making preparations for three VIPs: Trump, Melania Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis.
