According to MSNBC just now U.S. "officials" don't see the Trump trip as any big deal at all.

They were informed about it yesterday - no biggee. Its "not unusual for candidates to travel out of the country at the last minute" so our people down there were totally prepared, etc.

I wonder why they are playing it like this? Don't want to give Drumpf an opportunity to make them look bad/unprepared?

And if you reward them by reacting you encourage more of the same.
