Now, I’d read on FR last night that there was a rumor that the President would delay his speech due to Hurricane Laura. Has anyone heard differently?

I didn’t hear that. I think he should deliver the speech and announce that he’s going to Louisiana first thing tomorrow

Democrats are pushing him to delay it due to Laura.
That would be a mistake IMHO. Just like moving his Tulsa rally from Juneteenth was a mistake.

Never give an inch to these critics. We’ve had major political speeches given with a natural disaster occurring someplace in the country before.

I believe that was something that Kellyanne hinted at last night. POTUS is meeting with FEMA today and tonight the show will go on!

Amid questions over how Hurricane Laura’s devastating impact on the Gulf Coast would affect Thursday night’s final session of the Republican National Convention, the Trump campaign tells Fox News that President Trump’s acceptance speech “will happen as scheduled tonight.”
