Trump Thinks Using Gettysburg or the White House for an RNC Acceptance Speech is OK?

After Trump was criticized for wanting to use the WH, he added Gettysburg, another unethical location, to his wishlist. "It’s all a bit nutty," presidential historian David Brinkley said, "I can’t think of a worse idea."

Adding Gettysburg as a choice was probably a ploy to make his White House choice seem more palatable. After President Trump faced a backlash, even from other Republicans, for wanting to give his Republican convention acceptance at the WH then he added Gettysburg, another unethical location, to his wishlist.

"CNN anchor Erica Hill argued early Tuesday that President Trump's remarks that he might deliver his Republican convention acceptance speech from Gettysburg "leaves you scratching your head," saying he has recently done "his best to shore up the Confederacy."

""To think that now we’re looking at Gettysburg, where the president has in recent weeks really taken it upon himself to do his best to shore up the Confederacy, right, that we keep Confederate flags and monuments to Confederate generals going. That, too, leaves you scratching your head."

"It’s all a bit nutty," presidential historian David Brinkley concurred. "Here is Donald Trump defending Confederate monuments staying up, refusing to strip the name of rogue traitors like Bragg from federal forts, now talking about speaking at Gettysburg, remember, not giving a speech there about public policy, but self-aggrandizing himself, making that the center of the Republican National Committee, the middle of the battlefield and cemetery at Gettysburg. I can’t think of a worse idea."
