Donald Trump is scheduled to join Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) on Monday night for a “tele-town hall” meeting to talk about economic issues. Voters can call in from anywhere in the nation to ask the pair questions.
Trump hasn’t endorsed a candidate yet, though he has engaged in public flirting with Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, Herman Cain and Bachmann at different points. The Bachmann tele-town hall marks the first time that Trump has participated in an event with any of the candidates, however.
Calling into “Fox & Friends” on Monday morning, Donald Trump admitted he didn’t even know he was participating in the event until the hosts asked him about it.
“It’s called a modern-day town-hall meeting, right? And I said, ‘I guess I could.’ I didn’t even know I was doing it till you just told me … but that’s OK,” he said.
Trump seemed unconcerned, adding “I think it’s fine and you’ll have lots of people calling in, and I look forward to it … it’s my honor to do it.”
If you are interested, you can sign up to call in to the pair tonight here.
