roof A/C TRIPS 20 AMP BREAKER
WORKING ON ROOF A/C it runs and is cold for about 15 to 20 minutes and then it trips the 20amp breaker that it is connected to. trailer breaker box. I was thinking possibly I should use a 30 amp break...

Weak breakers will trip when at or near full capacity. Replacing it with a 30A breaker is dangerous. You then have no protection of the undersized wiring with the resulting possability of fire. 20A is really borderline for a AC unit, especially if it a 15K AC unit. Replace the breaker with the same size then refrain from using the AC on 20A.
