Trump Says He May Accept Nomination At Gettysburg

The Hill reports:

President Trump on Monday said he plans to deliver his acceptance speech during the Republican National Convention (RNC) from either the White House or the battlefield at Gettysburg. Trump last week said he would “probably” give the speech from the White House, an idea that drew pushback from even some Republicans.

“I assume that’s not something that you could do. I assume there’s some Hatch Act issues or something,” said Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), the second highest-ranking GOP senator. “I don’t know the answer to that and I haven’t heard him say that, but I think anything to do with federal property would seem to me to be problematic.”

Everything is a game show.

We have narrowed the Presidential Nomination Acceptance Speech, to be delivered on the final night of the Convention (Thursday), to two locations – The Great Battlefield of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and the White House, Washington, D.C. We will announce the decision soon!
