President Trump speaks at Boeing plant in South Carolina

President Donald Trump visited South Carolina on Friday to tour a Boeing plant in North Charleston.

Trump's visit will be his first since naming law school dean R. Alexander Acosta as his pick to lead the U.S. Department of Labor, following the withdrawal of troubled nominee Andrew Puzder. Acosta has served on the National Labor Relations Board and as a federal prosecutor in Florida and was an assistant attorney general for civil rights under President George W. Bush.
