I was not born in the US. And you're too smart to even consider the job.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Poll shows Duval voters oppose RNC coming to Jacksonville, worry about coronavirus impact
The poll was commissioned by an anti-Trump organization, so definitely take that with a fistful of salt.

I can see that even among the more thoughtful Trump supporters.
The people who fly in for the convention are at least making a decision to accept any risk. The citizens of Jacksonville didn’t get a say in this.
Only non-witches get due process.

Donors are wondering why they gave to a Charlotte event that has mostly been scrapped. And Jacksonville fund-raisers find money is on hold because of concerns about the surge in virus cases.‘WASHINGTON — The abrupt uprooting of the Republican National Convention from Charlotte to Jacksonville has created a tangled financial predicament for party officials as they effectively try to pay for two big events instead of one.
Tens of millions of dollars have already been spent in a city that will now host little more than a G.O.P. business meeting, and donors are wary of opening their wallets again to bankroll a Jacksonville gathering thrown into uncertainty by a surge in coronavirus cases.

Still, they are having a convention. What about dem donors?
Hopefully the Democratic donors put their money into something more productive, or at least something less endangering to public health.

I think it’s more like not running for office. But I do get that strategy. An election year where one side really didn’t run.
Donors got a vacation. -
It looks like the Grand Old Party’s party is getting less grand and maybe less old.
These prominent GOP members have said that they will not attend the Republican National Convention this year:
- Sen. Chuck Grassley
- Sen. Lamar Alexander
- Sen. Lisa Murkowski
- Sen. Susan Collins <== she says she’s just following her own historical pattern
- Sen. Mitt Romney
- Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner
Chances are more will announce that they will not attend the RNC this year.
Of course, one can still think that the RNC will still be yuge compared to the DNC since there may not be a real-life DNC at all.
