Trump Considers Historic Gettysburg As Site For RNC Nomination Speech

GETTYSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA - AUGUST 11: A sign outside the Soldiers' National Cemetery marks the area where President Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address, across the road from the Gettysburg National Military Park on August 11, 2020 in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The park is one of the places that President Donald Trump is considering to give his acceptance speech for the Republican nomination later this month. Trump was originally scheduled to accept his renomination in Charlotte, North Carolina, the location of the Republican National Convention, but moved his speech in June to Jacksonville, Florida, to try to skirt safety requirements like social distancing and mask-wearing that were put in place to reduce the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). In July, he pulled the convention out of Jacksonville as COVID-19 cases surged in Florida. (Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)
