Heavy rain is expected in the area on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The initial decision to stage it at Camp David had raised eyebrows, given that Trump had visited the presidential retreat deep in the Maryland countryside, 62 miles north-west of Washington, much less frequently than most of his predecessors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Wednesday\u2019s meeting will focus on \u201crecent successes of the administration including economy and small business wins, Task Force to Eliminate Fraud highlights, and foreign policy updates\u201d, a White House spokesperson told the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2026\/05\/26\/us-news\/trump-to-make-rare-trip-to-camp-david-as-iran-tensions-rise-over-us-strikes\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">New York Post<\/a>, which revealed the preliminary Camp David venue, before the subsequent shift.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The gathering comes as Trump\u2019s approval ratings sink and economic pessimism rises amid the war with Iran.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Trump announced at the weekend that a deal to end hostilities was close at hand, although the US on Monday struck Iranian targets, reportedly killing four members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Negotiations, nevertheless, were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/business\/2026\/may\/26\/oil-price-energy-market-us-iran-peace-talks\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">said to be continuing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Trump \u2013 who said last Saturday that an agreement with Iran \u201chad been largely negotiated\u201d \u2013 has sent confusing signals on peace prospects after a largely negative reaction from US rightwing circles and anti-Tehran hawks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In a social media post on Tuesday, he vented anger at media commentators who had depicted the emerging terms as favorable to Iran and a potential humiliation for him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cIf Iran surrenders \u2026 and admit their defeat to the great power and force of the magnificent USA, the Failing New York Times, the China Street Journal (WSJ!), Corrupt and now Irrelevant CNN, and all other members of the Fake News Media, will headline that Iran had a Masterful and Brilliant Victory over The United States of America,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116642543193922330\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Participants in the meeting are expected to include Tulsi Gabbard, who announced her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/may\/22\/tulsi-gabbard-resignation-intelligence-director\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">forthcoming resignation<\/a> as director of national intelligence last week. Gabbard attracted Trump\u2019s ire last year after testifying to Congress that she believed Iran was not pursuing nuclear weapons, just months before US forces bombed the country\u2019s uranium enrichment facilities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-print-layout=\"hide\" class=\"dcr-qxqnsy\"><span class=\"dcr-1rq3vad\">Explore more on these topics<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"dcr-1dzx48f\">\n<ul class=\"dcr-1rrvs2w\">\n<li class=\"dcr-hj8byr\"><a href=\"\/us-news\/us-news\" class=\"dcr-1gwziyt\">US news<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"dcr-hj8byr\"><a href=\"\/us-news\/us-politics\" class=\"dcr-1gwziyt\">US politics<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"dcr-hj8byr\"><a href=\"\/us-news\/donaldtrump\" class=\"dcr-1gwziyt\">Donald Trump<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"dcr-hj8byr\"><a href=\"\/tone\/news\" class=\"dcr-1gwziyt\">news<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dcr-nu129i\"><a href=\"mailto:?subject=Trump%20moves%20Camp%20David%20cabinet%20meeting%20to%20White%20House%20as%20Iran%20talks%20continue&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/may\/27\/trump-cabinet-camp-david-washington-iran?CMP=share_btn_url\" class=\"dcr-125qj9d\">Share<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"dcr-zhx6xs\"><a data-link-name=\"meta-syndication-article\" href=\"https:\/\/syndication.theguardian.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theguardian.com%2Fus-news%2F2026%2Fmay%2F27%2Ftrump-cabinet-camp-david-washington-iran&amp;type=article&amp;internalpagecode=us-news\/2026\/may\/27\/trump-cabinet-camp-david-washington-iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"Reuse this content\" class=\"dcr-14rjinq\">Reuse this content<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"--grid-area:right-column\" data-gu-name=\"right-column\" class=\"dcr-1h2hraq\">\n<div class=\"dcr-tn16h9\">\n<section class=\"dcr-1hko8ef\"><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump at a cabinet meeting at the White House in March.
