🚩 The 'Will' Rule
In this story, we see the word will many times. We use this when we talk about the future (things that have not happened yet).

- President Trump will go → (Future action)
- Officers will be there → (Future state)
- They will close the streets → (Future action)
Simple Pattern:
Person/Thing + will + Action Word = Future
