Thus telling everyone ‘screw you ‘ that says a President should NOT play politics with the nation’s residence for it’s chief executive …
Lets see if there is enough of a push back to make him change his mind?
President Trump on Thursday confirmed to the The Post he intends to give his Republican National Convention speech from the White House lawn, defying critics who said the location was inappropriate.
During an exclusive Oval Office interview, the president said he would visit the battlefield at Gettysburg at a “later date” and described his vision of a socially-distanced speech in front of supporters at the executive mansion in Washington, DC later this month.
“I’ll probably be giving my speech at the White House because it is a great place. It’s a place that makes me feel good, it makes the country feel good,” Trump told the Post, saying it would also be easiest for law enforcement and the Secret Service.
“We’d do it possibly outside on one of the lawns, we have various lawns, so we could have it outside in terms of the China virus,” he continued, referring to social distancing guidelines amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“We could have quite a group of people. It’s very big, a very big lawn. We could have a big group of people,” he said when asked if he’d formally accept the Republican nomination for president with a crowd of supporters….

I would not wish for any harm to come, but if G-d were to find it appropriate for him to be nearly hit by lightning while giving this speech, I will use that as a message to vote for Biden.

The Biden campaign has release a list of 152 lies Trump has said concerning the coronavirus pandemic.
Frankly ,I was surprised that it was only 152.
They did note however,”and counting.”
There will be several more over the next few days ;however, many are repetitious ,such as “it will just go away.”

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ,in a break from his usual Trump cultlike behavior, says the Postal Service should be fully funded.
Earlier McCarthy opposed a plan that included such.
He may be reacting to various reports that vulnerable House Republicans are restless with his Trump cheerleading and that a move is gaining traction to challenge his position in the next Congress.
