Trump Scraps Republican Convention In Jacksonville!

Trump was nominated in Cleveland. Now he will do his nomination in a virtual convention.

Ignore the polls --- Joe Biden. We got work to do!

The former vice president is aware that in 100 days American voters will decide on whether he or Donald J. Trump is qualified to be President of the United States.

Right now, Trump is playing on the culture war. He has released this ad in many swing states to paint Biden as "soft on crime" and willing to defund the police. He used an old white lady on the phone and clips of Fox News agitators deliberately lying about Biden's stances. In the video, a mysterious guy kicks down the door and the phone drops to the floor. It is a dog whistle and deliberate attempt to win back suburban voters.



With Florida, California and Texas leading in the number of coronavirus cases and deaths, Trump listened to members of his White House team.

Trump has decided that hosting a Republican National Convention in North Carolina and Florida was dangerous. Now do I want to believe him when he said that "It's not the right time!"

Nah, Trump was upset over this. He wanted a large gathering and thousands of attendees at the Jacksonville event. At the last minute, Trump and RNC chief Ronna Romney McDaniel had decided to pull out of Charlotte, North Carolina after Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat told them that having a large rally with COVID-19 cases rising is dangerous. He said that they can have a convention only if it was scaled back and safe for all to attend.

Trump didn't like that idea and decided that he wasn't going to take this shit. So he said fuck North Carolina. He rather be in Florida with his rally. Florida's governor Ron DeSantis, a Republican was thrilled to have the convention. He along with Jacksonville's mayor, a Republican wanted to roll out the red carpet.

Three weeks later....

Uh oh! We see a huge spike in coronavirus cases in metro areas like Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Tallahassee, Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale and Pensacola.

Florida, the third most populate state in the country is the second in coronavirus cases. DeSantis finally admits that he's fucked up with this pre-opening and now is requiring Floridians to wear mask in public.

He privately talked to Trump warning him that if he hosts the convention, it will be impossible to pull it off.

Trump is disappointed that his convention was cancelled.

So on Thursday, Trump formally announced he no longer going to host the convention in Jacksonville.

Scaled back events in Charlotte will go on for now.

Trump faced backlash from Republicans. Some of them felt that hosting the event would put lives at risk. Trump had held the infamous Tulsa rally last month and folks were infected with the coronavirus.

Oklahoma's Gov. Kevin Stitt, a Republican, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Herman Cain, twelve Secret Service agents and members of Trump campaign team tested positive for the coronavirus.

Republicans are in fear they could lose the White House and Senate. With Trump's bumbling on the pandemic and other domestic issues, it has put a dent in his chances of winning reelection.

I still have Trump at 49.7% chance of winning reelection.
