Trump threatens to move convention if governor will not allow them to fill to capacity..🙄

[helpisontheway]

I wish the governor could just say okay. Sick of him trying to intimidate people to get his way. https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/25/politics/trump-threatens-charlotte-republican-convention/index.html

1. Attention!

We have reached Peak Trump. I’ll take narcissism for $1,000, Alex!

With extra points for saying it at a Memorial Day observance.

2. It's the trump "threat of the day" ....

every day he has a new threat. Guess he thinks that makes him tough.

3. It's the only city that bid for the convention

4. He's probably trying to set up an excuse. That convention's not happening.

Republicans aren't going to fly in from across the country and pack into an auditorium. They can't wear masks or social distance, because it's against their platform of stupidity. So it would be suicide.

Trump just wants to be able to blame Dems for a cancellation he knows is already certain.

6. Meh, if Democrats in NC wanted to really get this state to turn blue, they would call his bluff.

Charlotte is the only city that wanted the RNC and if he pulls out, he will turn NC blue. The NCDP should call his bluff.

11. +1, good catch !!

5. Go for it, moran.

It'll turn NC blue and deflate the shitty Republicans already here. He'd be fucking himself to do that. LET HIM! I would love nothing more. Good riddance. Don't come back now, y'hear? I despise him and the thought of the RNC being held here.

BTW, he is bluffing. He knows what I know. If NC Democrats were smart about things, they would call his bluff.

12. Exactly. Tell your MAGAt supporters in NC you don't want to do business in their swing State.

That'll win'em over.

7. Oh please, oh please, oh please!

What do they have to lose?

8. Fuck off, whinny tRump! n/t

9. They should move it to Midland, Tx - tumbleweeds, shitkickers, oil bidness, strippers,

and Jesus freaks - sorry to any Dems (if there are any?)

10. "I want to do something very good for our Country by using Trump National Doral for the Convention

My people looked at 12 sites, all good, but this is only five minutes from the airport, the airport’s right next door"

13. Good. Do it.
