Trump postpones Las Vegas fundraiser

Published October 11, 2017 4:01pm ET



President Trump has postponed a Las Vegas fundraiser that was to collect money from wealthy donors for his 2020 re-election bid, the Republican National Committee said Wednesday.

The event was canceled after the shooting in Las Vegas earlier this month that left 59 dead. A lone gunman opened fire from a casino tower, targeting attendees of an outdoor country music concert with automatic weapons fire. It was the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.
