Although Donald Trump made a big stink about being able to attend his son Barron’s high school graduation ceremony, it appears he will now be going to Minnesota that day.
The former president has agreed to be the keynote speaker at the Republican Party of Minnesota’s annual Lincoln Reagan Dinner, according to KFGO radio.
The day is May 17, the same day Barron will graduate high school in Palm Beach, Florida, which is also a day off from Trump’s current hush money trial in New York.
HuffPost reached out to the Trump campaign to ask if the presumptive GOP nominee for president planned to attend both events, but no one immediately responded.
Considering how Trump and his supporters went into a tizzy last month when it appeared as if court might be scheduled on Barron’s graduation day, it might seem weird and hypocritical to plan a rally on that exact day.
Many reactions to the news of Trump’s rally went along the lines of “told you so.”
I knew Trump didn’t really want to go to Barron’s graduation, but I didn’t think he’d take it to this extreme. Do you, bruh… https://t.co/GOa6f6I4zV

After whining, playing victim and lying to his supporters about the judge not allowing him to attend his son’s graduation, trump opts to attend a fundraiser instead of Barron’s commencement. MAGA will never get tired of being played like the absolute fools that they are.
