Former President Trump’s plane was diverted to Billings, Montana, on Friday due to a mechanical issue, a Billings airport official said.
The Republican presidential nominee is scheduled to hold a rally in nearby Bozeman, Montana, Friday evening, and is still expected to make it.
The local FOX affiliate reported that "it's not clear if Trump will fly on to Bozeman or drive in a motorcade." Bozeman airport CEO Brian Springer told them "Trump's plane had landed in Billings and that the motorcade that had expected him to land in Bozeman had departed."
Trump shared a video in anticipation of his rally and fundraisers in the state on Truth Social after he landed, but there was no mention of the plane's problem:
