WASHINGTON — Trump campaign aides are weighing another event on White House grounds around Election Day, despite criticism over the venue's use as a political prop during the Republican convention.

There have been serious discussions about the logistics of pulling off an political event there in the closing days or hours of the race, following President Donald Trump's satisfaction with his convention address on the White House South Lawn, according to two people familiar with the planning.

During the Republican convention, the president was criticized for using the White House as the backdrop for a purely political event, with several former government ethics officials saying it represented a misuse of public resources for personal gain. Throughout the election cycle, Trump has repeatedly blurred the lines between where the office of the president ends and the campaign begins, using official remarks and trips to attack his fall rival, Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

----------
Several scenarios are being discussed, according to the sources. One possibility under consideration would be for Trump to hold an election night victory party there with supporters, similar to the sort of event that a candidate might hold in a hotel ballroom, said one person. Another option being considered is a rally-style event at the White House on the eve of the election, said a second person.

1. How about slithering back into the hole where he came from when he loses his ass

[Me.]

2. Will THey Gather On The Fake Grass THey Had To Put In

after they destroyed the garden with shoddy workmanship?

3. That's why he doesn't want to wait for immediate results.

All those fireworks will have gone to waste if he can't declare victory that night. He'll most likely claim he won in any event.

4. If he goes with the "victory" party but clearly gets trounced...

...will he tear-gas the partygoers out of spite?

That was a trick question. Even if he gets trounced, we know he'll claim victory anyway: "Rigged!" "I'll win on the mail-in vote!"

5. Perfect place for

a mass arrest of the whole cabal.

8. ...

My dream of dreams lately.

6. Might want to pack up all that gawdy crap and load the borrowed trucks.

Declare it a MOVING party!

10. The rare occasion where using campaign funds at his hotel would actually be

a more appropriate choice (imo), and he doubles down on the inappropriate. Just because he can.

11. Yup. No one stopped him before so he'll keep pushing it farther.

Makes me nauseous.
