U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he and the Republican National Committee would need information on whether they’ll be able to go ahead with its 2020 convention in North Carolina “within a week” from Gov.
Roy Cooper, despite the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. He said they need to know before spending “millions and millions” on an arena in preparation.
He said they’d have “no choice” to look at another state to host the event should the governor not give enough notice. Asked why he said it would be “suspicious” should a governor say he doesn’t want to move too quickly on reopening,.
