US President Trump threatens to pull Republican convention out of North Carolina over fears that virus restrictions would reduce his crowds
US President Donald Trump listens as North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper speaks while attending a briefing, September 19, 2018, in Havelock, NC.
“Unfortunately, Democrat Governor, @RoyCooperNC is still in Shutdown mood & unable to guarantee that by August we will be allowed... full attendance in the Arena,” Trump tweeted on Monday. Calling Trump's remarks “a very reasonable request," Pence told Fox that "having a sense now is absolutely essential because of the immense preparations that are involved, and we look forward to working with Governor Cooper, getting a swift response and, if needs be, if needs be, moving the national convention to a state that is farther along on reopening and can say with confidence that we can gather there.
A week ago, Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel vowed on a call with reporters that the convention slated for August 24-27 would be held at least partly in person.
