Trump, Merkel meeting postponed due to weather

President Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel have postponed their highly anticipated first meeting thanks to a snowstorm expected to hit Washington, D.C., Monday.

The meeting — originally set for Tuesday — has been pushed to Friday, White House press secretary Sean Spicer said. 

Trump and Merkel are expected to hold a bilateral meeting and working lunch, then answer questions at a joint press conference.
