Trump Faces Big Rallies in Phoenix


WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Large protests were expected to greet President Donald Trump on Tuesday in Arizona which he planned to visit for his first campaign rally since he caused an uproar with his remarks about a white nationalist demonstration in Virginia.
Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton, a Democrat, asked the Republican president to postpone Tuesday's event scheduled for 7 p.m. MST (0200 GMT on Wednesday) in light of his response to the street battles that broke out earlier this month at a protest against the removal of a Confederate statue in Charlottesville.
