Trump to reveal 'major foreign policy' Monday to invited guests only

YOUNGSTOWN

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump will deliver a “major foreign-policy address” at an invitation-only event Monday at Youngstown State University, according to a prominent local supporter of the candidate.

Columbiana County Republican Party Chairman Dave Johnson, who co-hosted a Canton-area fundraiser for Trump earlier this week, also said he and other Republican county chairmen are giving out about 350 tickets to “community leaders and organizers” to the event that will take place in the Chestnut Room at YSU’s Kilcawley Center. The location can hold up to 750 people, according to Shannon Tirone, YSU’s associate vice president for university relations.

The event is scheduled to start at 2 p.m. As of late Friday, the Youngstown stop was the only item on Trump’s schedule for Monday.

“It’s not going to be a rally; it’s going to be a foreign-policy address by invitation only,” Johnson said.

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, Trump’s vice-presidential running mate, also will be at the YSU event, Johnson said.
