Instead of hosting a roundtable luncheon with Miami's Latino leaders on Tuesday, Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump held a fundraiser at the nearby golf course bearing his name.
Last Saturday, the Trump campaign announced a July 26 meeting with Latinos at Versailles, the venerable Cuban-American eatery known for such get-togethers. The rescheduled meeting again had to be cancelled, this time because guests could not commit on short notice.
"The participants that were supposed to be part of the original roundtable are not in town," said Trump national political adviser Karen Giorno told the Miami Herald. "We're going to wait until we can get them.

Carlos Trujillo, billionaire sugar baron José "Pepe" Fanjul Sr., and former Florida International University Emeritus Modesto Maidique.
