The Trump campaign currently has no other publicly scheduled events listed on its events calendar. On Thursday, Trump told reporters at a news conference that he plans to keep a low-key schedule of campaign events in the coming days and will remain that way until the Democratic National Convention ends on Aug. 22.

“President Trump has a packed travel schedule of rallies, messaging events and fundraisers in the coming week. He has more campaign events than [Harris] and Walz put together,” Trump spokesman Steven Cheung told CNBC.

Trump’s vice presidential nominee, Sen. J.D. Vance (R., Ohio), had a fairly active week, though, hitting the same battleground states as the Harris-Walz campaign, including a local stop at the 2300 Arena in South Philadelphia hours before Harris and Walz appeared Tuesday at the Liacouras Center in North Philadelphia.

Trump’s campaign did not announce any additional appearances by Vance on Friday afternoon.
