Gov. DeSantis believes Florida will be able to host Republican National Convention in a 'safe way'

Other states "wish" that they had followed Florida's lead in their responses to the coronavirus pandemic, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis suggested Thursday, saying he believes the state can host the Republican National Convention this summer.

In an interview on "Fox & Friends," DeSantis detailed his tactics heading into Phase II of his state's COVID-19 reopening plan and assured the state was following White House guidelines including limiting group-size to up to 50 people and implementing temperature checks.

"I was at Universal Studios yesterday making this announcement. They're now open at least for the pass holders. They are going to be open to the general public, I think, tomorrow. They are doing temperature checks," he pointed out. "So, there [are] all kinds of things people are doing to keep people safe. So, we want to be able to allow people to have options and really trust people to make good decisions. I think that is really the best posture to be in."

They're thinking safe from the stupid virus?

What about the commie cancer?

They need to talk recent hosts of R and D conventions. Find what they did right or wrong and what advice they've learned from the recent """protests""".

You are right there. I said that from the beginning. The purpose of it was to drive President Trump out of Office. Failing that, to collapse the economy so that he would be defeated with the help of vote fraud at the polls come November 2020. Part one of the plan failed, I would say miserably. Part 2 of the plan remains yet to be seen. We will learn in November 2020.

Democrats should hold theirs in Chicago, preferably in the neighborhoods that vote almost unanimously for their candidates, to showcase the grand successes of Democrat culture to the world.

OK I’ll say it, Safe Way does not seem like a big enough venue for a convention that size.
