North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper says his state is working with RNC organizers despite Trump's threat to pull the convention from his state.
"We're talking about something that's going to happen three months from now, and we don't know what our situation is going to be regarding COVID-19 in North Carolina," he said.
"The president's right to say to the governor, 'You need to assure us before we lock in all these hotel rooms and we bring all this revenue to your state that you're going to let us have this convention,'" she said."We want to have it in North Carolina. The president loves North Carolina," McDaniel said during the Fox interview.
"Currently we're coming down and that's encouraging to see and we're ready for the convention to take place," she told reporters during a White House briefing."There's a lot of states calling the president right now saying, 'Hey why don't you bring that revenue to our state,'" McDaniel said on Fox News.
