CLEVELAND, Ohio -- President Donald Trump's Saturday trip to Cleveland will take place at Public Hall, according to sources familiar with the event.



Trump is expected to arrive in Cleveland Saturday morning, landing at the nearby Burke Lakefront Airport before heading to Public Hall.

Trump ostensibly will be in Cleveland to discuss the Republican tax reform legislation passed in December, but given Trump's proclivity to go off-script -- and the proximity to Tuesday's primary election in a state he memorably won in the November 2016 election -- it seems likely his remarks will be more wide-ranging.



Trump also is expected to appear at a nearby fundraiser affiliated with the Republican National Committee.



Wadsworth U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci, whom Trump has endorsed in the Republican U.S. Senate primary, and U.S. Rep. Bob Gibbs, of Holmes County, are expected to be among those on hand for the event.



Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, the frontrunner in Tuesday's primary for governor, will not be there. A campaign spokesman said Thursday that DeWine is unable to attend due to a family scheduling conflict, and will be in Columbus Saturday morning for his son's graduation from Ohio State University's business school. However, DeWIne's running-mate, Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted, will be on hand to represent the ticket.



Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor, who also is running for governor, has not yet announced that she will attend, but a campaign spokesman said Thursday that she plans to be there.

The appearance is an official White House event. Such events are generally invitation only.



Public Hall, which opened in 1922, has seen its share of prominent politicians over the years. In November 2016, Hillary Clinton, then the Democratic Party's presidential nominee, visited two days before that year's election.
