The move would mark an unprecedented use of public property for partisan political purposes
“It’s easy and I think it’s a beautiful setting, and we are thinking about that. It’s certainly one of the alternatives,” Trump said during a wide-ranging telephone interview on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends.”The Republican National Convention is scheduled for Aug. 24-27, with Trump’s acceptance speech capping the final night.
Trump said journalists will be allowed in to cover his Aug. 24 renomination in Charlotte. Reports last week said the proceeding would be closed to media coverage because of coronavirus restrictions.Trump said Wednesday that the convention will be a mix of virtual events and live speeches, including his remarks and a speech by first lady Melania Trump. “I’ll probably do mine live from the White House,” he said.
Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden is expected to deliver his acceptance address from Milwaukee, and top party leaders and staff will be there. But delegates are not travelling to the site and all business, including the vote to nominate Biden, will be virtual or by mail ballot.
