President Donald Trump’s recent run of attending sporting events could take him out of the country just as the 2020 presidential election is heating up.
Trump said on Tuesday that he is considering a visit to Japan during the Olympic Games in Tokyo, according to Reuters. He reportedly said he was invited by Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe.
“We’ll make that determination. We haven’t made it yet. We might. We’re going to try if we can,” Trump said, per Reuters.
The opening ceremony of the Tokyo Games is scheduled for July 24, only a few weeks after Trump’s opponent for the 2020 election will be named at the Democratic National Convention.
