Trump Heads To World Economic Forum

WASHINGTON (AP) — On the anniversary of his inauguration, President Donald Trump is heading to the World Economic Forum in Davos, an annual gathering of the global elite. He plans to use a key address there Wednesday to lay out his plans to make housing more affordable. The Swiss mountain town, where ski chalets go for $4.4 million, is a strange backdrop for the speech. But Trump — who has spent a lot of time surrounded by billionaires during his first year back in the White House — is counting on wealthy business leaders to create economic growth. However, headlines about Trump’s push to acquire Greenland threaten to overshadow his proposals.
