President Donald Trump threatened Monday to pull the Republican National Convention out of North Carolina if the state’s Democratic governor doesn’t immediately sign off on allowing a full-capacity gathering in August despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
iframe.twitter-tweet { width: 100% !important; } On Friday, Gov. Roy Cooper moved the state into a second phase of gradual reopening by loosening restrictions on hair salons, barbers and restaurants. But he said the state must continue to closely watch virus trends and has ordered indoor entertainment venues, gyms and bars to remain closed for several more weeks.
He added that Republicans “must be immediately given an answer by the Governor as to whether or not the space will be allowed to be fully occupied. If not, we will be reluctantly forced...to find, with all of the jobs and economic development it brings, another Republican National Convention site.
A week ago, Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel asserted on a call with reporters that the convention slated for Aug. 24-27 would be held at least partly in person. She said the party enlisted a medical adviser and was consulting with the Charlotte mayor and the governor.
Go please go away👿👿👿👿
Just curious: it’s this a ploy to move it to mar a lago?
Spoiled baby.
The Republican Convention should be held in Pyongyang.
Spoiler. He's gonna hold it a Trump property, cus the grift most flow.
This threat is playing to his supporters & in so doing encouraging them to not play by the prevention rules. And because his brain is wired by NPD, he's self-absorbed & indifferent to consequences. His wants overrides his every word action deed--and that's winning again.
