US President Donald Trump is set to make his first visit to California -- a state that is at odds with his administration over issues ranging from immigration to guns -- since taking officeUS President Donald Trump is heading to California, a state at the forefront of resistance to his anti-immigration agenda, for what is almost certain to be a contentious trip. Trump's first trip to California as president, on Tuesday, comes at a time of high tensions between his Republican administration and the Democratic-leaning most populous US state, especially on immigration issues. Governor Jerry Brown said the Trump administration "is basically going to war against the state of California," after the Justice Department sued to block its sanctuary laws. "The state of California is sheltering dangerous criminals in a brazen and lawless attack on our constitutional system of government." Trump's visit to California will be marked by protests, both for and against the president and his policies.
