Isn’t Coeur D’Alene only something like 25 miles from Spokane? I’m told that has become a Leftist hellhole in recent years.

Trump held a rally in Wichita which also has an indoor arena able to seat 10’s of thousands. Kansas City might be worth looking into as well.

yes, but Idaho is a open/conceal carry state, so the libs stay across the border. Spokane has some wannabe gang bangers, but where I came from, they’d be easy.....

Have it at the Indianapolis 500 Race Track

Holds 500,000 people (257,000 seats plus 200,000+ in the infield), centrally-located ("The Crossroads of America"), already used to providing security and infrastructure and hotels for massive crowds, only 4 of Indiana's 92 counties went for Hillary (and even Indy Metro barely went for her), etc etc etc... a very good choice.

Violence from liberals would just boost Republicans. Remember 1968.

If it’s a concern, there are ways to deploy teh police and security to handle it.

Maybe they should reach out to cities like Detroit, Chicago, and Baltimore, where Democrat mayors have ruined life for the people there, and then use the cities as a contrast.

Hold the convention in Wasila, Alaska where the protesting leftists can be fed to the bears.

This is just like college campuses (like UC-Berkeley) turning down conservative speakers because they are afraid of all of the security needed to prevent damage and harm from liberal rioters, such as antifa. The Mayors are succumbing to the “hecklers’ veto,” which becomes a form of censorship. All they need is to announce and show the police force and their no-nonsense “rules of engagement,” and the riots will stop after the first real demonstration of serious police force.

OKLAHOMA CITY has been investing in convention upgrading I am sure they would love to host the Republican convention. They could display their recent improvements. They are in the center of the USA and easy to reach. Major highways go north and south, east and west. The airport is near down town. What more does the GOP want? I’m sure the mayor will be obliging. Looking forward to see y’all here!

Wilkes-Barre PA, or any of those Deplorabe towns that were solidly Democrat but went 60% for Trump.

El Pado county is the rare city of over 500,000 metro that isn’t a Dem stronghold

Dallas used to be

San Diego too

Phoenix too

Those days are long gone

I think Pinellas in Florida went Trump

Pasco too

Nashville is lying it’s Austin on the Cumberland

It’s only short of Vegas as a convention town

They don’t want Trump

Hi.

“I think Pinellas in Florida went Trump”

You are correct, and I couldn’t believe it when it happened.
