Trump's visit was originally scheduled for August but was postponed after the mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio.
Although the visit will be an official White House stop and not a campaign event, The Villages is a Republican stronghold.
Sid Bowdidge and John Calandro, of The Villages, are founding members of the “Villagers for Trump” club, which boasts more than 1,700 members. They're looking forward to hearing about the President's plan for medicare.
“There's a lot of challeges to the medicare system, so I'm glad that the president hasn't lost sight of the importance to a significant portion of the population," Calandro said.
Coincidentally, the President's trip is scheduled on the same day as the Villagers for Trump's annual "Trump Day Dinner." The keynote speaker will be Stephen Baldwin, brother of actor Alec Baldwin.
