Haha haha. They can’t get big crowds so they say “they are limiting attendance due to a hoax, I mean coronavirus”

I think it was a good decision to be limited participants because of spreading coronavirus. But, on the other hand, i don't believe that so many people would be interested in taking part in such a Convention like this one in Florida.

FakeNews

Insane

Cancel the convention!!!

I love outdoor events in august, in Florida

Outdoors in Fla in August?!? Sounds lovely!!

What? Sounds like NC Guidelines.

Romney and Ryan invited me to their Convention in 2012 in Florida. Mary Hart asked me to be there, Long time friends. Keanu Reeves and Brad Pitt didn’t go. I skipped all GOP parties and went to the beach instead. Enjoyed dolphins 🐬. Glad GOP is downsizing this year.

😂😂😂

Fraudulent diagnoses

Translation: no one wants to attend the RNC convention.

No need to limit attendance Like in Tulsa No one will show anyways So just put out a few chairs and hot dogs

Hold it in the stadium, outdoors and masks work, right?

So, some morons cannot attend; so sad for President DimwiT.
