President Trump will visit Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday, following days of protests in the city over the police shooting of black man Jacob Blake, the White House announced on Saturday.
Trump will meet with 'law enforcement and survey damage from recent riots', White House spokesman Judd Deere told reporters aboard Air Force One.
He did not say if the president will meet the family of Blake, who was left paralyzed from the waist down after he was shot multiple times in the back by police officers on August 23.
The visit is certain to exacerbate tensions in the city, where a crowd of about 1,000 demonstrators gathered outside a courthouse Saturday to denounce police violence.

WNU Editor: Democrat leaders do not want President Trump to show up because he may inflame tensions and worsen the violence. Are you kidding me?!?!?! I have seen the videos of blocks of stores and businesses burned down. The violence against people who tried to protect their property. The Democrat Governor and other officials refusing Federal aid for days to stop the mayhem. And they are saying President Trump may inflame the situation if he shows up. We are way past that now. What I see is the opposite, and that is people in the community needing to feel reassure that the Federal government and the President are aware of what they are going through, and to stand with them against the authorities who have failed so miserably at their job and responsibilities in protecting them.
