COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump is set to attend South Carolina’s biggest athletic event of the year. Trump will be at the Nov. 25 matchup between the University of South Carolina and Clemson University. That’s according to a person familiar with the plans but not authorized to speak publicly about them. The game, known as the Palmetto Bowl comes, as Trump competes against former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, among others, for the 2024 Republican nomination. It wasn’t immediately clear if Haley would also attend the game. Trump has remained popular in the state ever since his 2016 run for the White House.
