Donald Trump hinted that he might skip his son Don Jr’s wedding because he is too busy with work.
The eldest of the president’s offspring, Donald Trump Jr, is headed for the altar this weekend with his fiancée, a Florida socialite, Bettina Anderson.
But Trump Jr might have to celebrate the milestone without his dad there after the president signalled that the wedding is lower on his priority list than dealing with the Iran war he started.
When Trump was asked about his plan, he said: ‘He’d like me to go, but it’s going to be just a small little private affair, and I’m going to try and make it.
‘This is not good timing for me.

‘Everything called Iran and other things.’
Trump continued: ‘He’s a person I’ve known for a long time.
‘Hopefully they are going to have a great marriage.’
Aware of how his no-show might look to anyone outside the family, Trump said he will be damned whether he goes or not.
He continued: ‘That’s one I can’t win on. If I do attend, I get killed. If I don’t attend, I get killed – by the fake news, of course, I’m talking about.’

Trump Jr’s wedding is said to be in the Bahamas on a small island, leaked details have revealed.
While the US president’s predecessors have organised weddings for their children and relatives in the White House, it wasn’t in the cards for Trump Jr, who is tying the knot for the second time.
He was previously married to Vanessa Trump, with whom he has two children, Kai and Donald Trump III. Vanessa Trump is dating golfer Tiger Woods.
Dad Trump’s public schedule doesn’t currently indicate he will be attending.
Trump Jr, 48, is the only one of the five siblings to carry the Trump name.
He is the eldest child born to Trump and his first wife, Ivana, before Ivanka and Eric, and he has two half-siblings, Barron and Tiffany Trump.
All the siblings are expected to attend the wedding, a source told CNN.
