President Trump’s son Eric canceled a campaign event for his father in Michigan on Tuesday after the venue hosting it revealed a former employee was involved in an alleged plot to kidnap the state’s Democratic Governor.
Huron Valley Guns in Southeast Michigan was scheduled to host an event for the Trump campaign headlined by Eric Trump, according to ClickOnDetroit.
“With much regret I must announce that the Trump Campaign changed venues within the last hour,” the gun shop said in a Facebook post on Monday. “In February 2020 we had a young man that worked on the range who would show up for work in a LOT of tactical gear.
