Trump is third American president to visit IraqWASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump made an unannounced trip to Iraq on Wednesday to meet U.S. troops. It's the sixth time that a U.S. president has visited Iraq. A look at previous presidential visits to Iraq: BUSH In November 2003, President George W. Bush became the first U.S. president to visit Iraq. He flew to Baghdad under extraordinary secrecy and security to spend Thanksgiving with U.S. troops and thank them for 'defending the American people from danger.'

The Latest: Trump stops to see US troops in GermanyAL-ASAD AIRBASE, Iraq (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump's trip to Iraq (all times local): 4 a.m. President Donald Trump is making a second unannounced visit to US troops abroad. On his way back from meeting troops in Iraq, Trump stopped at Ramstein Air Force Base for refueling and to see service members there. The president's earlier visit to a base in western Iraq was his first to U.S. forces in harm's way overseas. Aboard Air Force One, Trump press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters that Iraq's prime minister accepted an invitation from Trump to visit the White House. The two leaders spoke by phone. They did not meet when Trump was in Iraq. Is that all of them? someone needs to let Alyssa Milano know before she puts out another tweet about 45 not visiting the troops during the holidays. With all of these unannounced visits , we decided we better clean the bathroom and put out some fresh towels.
