Threats of protest appear to have scuttled plans for President Trumps first visit to Wisconsin this week, CNN reportedon Tuesday.It would have been Trumps first visit to the state as president.

The 128th Air Refueling Wing, a military airport in Milwaukee, confirmed that itwas contacted by Trumps press team and informed that the president will not be coming to the state Thursday, as previously scheduled.Tech. Sgt. Meghan Skrepenski said the White House did not provide an exact reason for the cancellation; the White Househad just confirmed the planned trip on Monday.

Trump was expected to tour a Harley Davidson factory where he also planned to sign executive orders related to American manufacturing. But according to an unnamedTrump official, the trip was canceled after Harley Davidson officials expressed concern about the potential for protests. Leaders Trump planned to meet with in Wisconsin will reportedly travel to Washington, D.C. instead.

Massive protests have been underway across the country in recent days following Trumps controversial executive order banning the resettlement of refugees and a temporarytravel ban for seven majority-Muslim nations.

News of Trumps canceled visit was celebrated as a victory by protesters on social media Tuesday:

Donald Trump is a real tough guy when it comes to locking up a scared five-year-old boy trying to find his mother, DNC senior adviser Zac Petkansas said in response to the canceled visit. But as soon as he has to face the American people to defend his illegal anti-Muslim ban he chickens out.

Trump was last in Wisconsin in December, when he held a thank you tour stop. Trump was the first Republican presidential candidate to win the popular vote in Wisconsin since 1984.

Tuesdays sudden cancellation follows an announcement that Trumps White House was canceling the signing of a planned executive order on cyber security after Trump held a meeting with top cyber security experts marking the second time in less than a week the White House has scrapped the signing of an order.
