The group, ACT for America, issued a statement saying Trump’s company had “caved to the Left’s bullying tactics” in canceling its Nov. 7 dinner gala. After Florida newspapers reported on the planned gala last weekend, the event was condemned by groups including the Council on American-Islamic Relations. “While we are disappointed in the decision made by the Trump Organization’s attorneys, we do not blame President Trump or the Trump family,” Gabriel said. The first was in July, when Trump’s Doral golf club canceled a planned golf tournament organized by a Miami-area strip club.
