After President Trump on Monday threatened to move the Republican National Convention from Charlotte, North Carolina, because of potential coronavirus health restrictions, other states are offering themselves as alternatives.
“We should try to get it done as best we can in accordance with whatever safety requirements. His government will be talking about the safety restrictions, the president’s government,” DeSantis said.
Trump knocked down one potential Florida locale on Monday, tweeting that"I have zero interest in moving the Republican National Convention to Doral in Miami, as falsely reported by the Fake Newsin order to stir up trouble," although the paper did not report he was planning on holding the event at the Doral, a property he owns.
That was a reference to Gov. Roy Cooper, who's said he's been negotiating with convention planners but intends to use"data and science" to protect the state's public health.
Trump said Monday he needs a"guarantee" the venue would be able to be at full capacity for the event, which is currently scheduled Aug. 24-27.
