South Carolina was already under a boycott due to the Confederate flag on the capitol grounds.

They probably only booked the convention (if even they did that), so they could loudly unbook it in protest.

The Wilson thing came up, so they unbooked it.

They probably have it booked for every year in SC for the next 10 years, so every year they can get in a snit over something and unbook it again.

You’re probably right. If they’d gone ahead with it, the NAACP would be all over them for breaking their useless “boycott” of South Carolina, which only seems to be observed by Democratic politicians and the fringiest of the black racist fringe. (And only ever seriously hurt black-owned businesses in the SC Lowcountry who specialized in tourism involving the rich post-slavery Gullah culture.)
