Watch live: Trump addresses National Prayer Breakfast

President Trump on Thursday is scheduled to address the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C. 

Trump in a tweet early Thursday said he is looking forward to seeing many “friends” at the event. 

Will be heading over shortly to make remarks at The National Prayer Breakfast in Washington. Great religious and political leaders, and many friends, including T.V. producer Mark Burnett of our wonderful 14 season Apprentice triumph, will be there. Looking forward to seeing all!
