President Donald Trump will no longer attend Saturday’s Alabama-Georgia college football game, he said, because first responders and law enforcement must focus on Hurricane Isaias as it barrels toward the Gulf Coast. Trump said a huge storm was coming and that the response needed focus. The White House confirmed the change in his plans. The game is a rivalry matchup between the University of Alabama and the University of Georgia in the Southeastern Conference. The reports describe the hurricane as the reason for the change in his schedule, and attribute that reason to Trump’s own statement.
