President Donald Trump is making a rare trip to Camp David on Wednesday, just 24 hours after his third Walter Reed Medical Center visit in 13 months, sparking speculation about the timing and purpose.
The trip to the secluded presidential retreat will include top administration officials, including outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, reported The New York Post. It will take place amid ongoing and strained peace negotiations with Iran.
Political observers questioned the unusual decision, noting Trump typically avoids Camp David.
“Could there be foreign visitors coming who want no White House image association?” polling firm Rasmussen Reports speculated on social media.
Political analyst Arieh Kovler questioned in a social media post why Cabinet meetings would move to Camp David given their lack of substantive content.
The 79-year-old president, turning 80 next month, has faced mounting questions about his health.
