Former President Donald Trump canceled his planned appearance at a well-known kosher deli in New York following the unexpected death of the deli’s owner, Shalom Yosef Gottlieb. Gottlieb, 75, passed away on Thursday due to a heart attack after battling pneumonia, according to the New York Post.

Trump had been scheduled to visit the Brooklyn deli before traveling to Washington, D.C., for a “Fighting Antisemitism in America” event later that evening.

The event in Washington will see Trump join Jewish leaders, including Dr. Miriam Adelson, to discuss the growing issue of antisemitism in the United States. Trump’s appearance at this event underscores his continued engagement with Jewish communities and his pledge to address antisemitism.

The passing of Gottlieb, a respected figure in the local community, led to the cancellation of Trump’s visit, as the former president shifted focus to his upcoming Washington appearance.
