President Donald Trump is traveling to Florida today to meet with those affected by the Wednesday school shooting that left 17 dead.
"I will be leaving for Florida today to meet with some of the bravest people on earth -- but people whose lives have been totally shattered," Trump tweeted Friday morning. "Am also working with Congress on many fronts."
It was not immediately clear whether Trump would be heading to Parkland or another part of the state. But Trump was scheduled to leave Friday afternoon for West Palm Beach -- less than 40 miles away.
Trump said Thursday he planned to head to Parkland "to meet with families and local officials and to continue coordinating the federal response" but the White House had yet to confirm details of his visit at the time of Trump's tweet.
