To mark Thanksgiving 2019, President Trump made an unannounced visit to U.S. troops stationed in Afghanistan, his first visit to the country, the Associated Press reported.
With just a few aides along for the trip, including National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien, Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham, and acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney in tow, but not the First Lady, the president toured Bagram Air Field, served turkey to the troops in the mess hall, took some pictures, and gave a short address.
