Donald Trump is still slated to appear at a rally in nearby Bozeman later in the evening.

Trump, who is in Montana for a fundraiser and to support Senate candidate Tim Sheehy, posted a video from his plane on social media. In the video, he praised the beauty of Montana but made no mention of the mechanical problem or the diversion. “I just landed in a really beautiful place: Montana. So beautiful, flying over and you just look down and that’s the way it’s supposed to be,” Trump said. He added, “I’m here to do some fundraisers and most important to support Tim Sheehy who’s running for the U.S. Senate and we think he’s going to do really well. We’re going to have a rally. And it’ll be a lot of fun.”

As of now, it is unclear whether Trump will continue to Bozeman by air or travel by motorcade, local FOX affiliate reported. Bozeman airport CEO Brian Springer confirmed that Trump’s plane landed in Billings and that the motorcade originally planned to meet him in Bozeman had already departed.
