Eric Trump says election night party will likely be moved from Trump hotel to White House

Eric Trump confirmed Friday that President Donald Trump was considering relocating his campaign’s election night party to the White House, responding to a new report that the president had canceled a planned appearance at his hotel in Washington, D.C.

“No, we’re thinking about moving it, actually, over to the White House for — we’re looking at that right now, and it’s going to be a great night. It’s going to be a really, really beautiful night,” Eric Trump, the president’s son, said in an interview on “Fox & Friends.”

...

The potential change of venue by the president is likely to provoke criticism of his continued use of the executive mansion for political purposes. Trump memorably delivered his nomination acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention in August from the White House lawn.

And if you think the Trump property is going to host a Trump party without getting paid up front, the answer is obviously No. They know who they're dealing with.

It's going to look like that famous movie scene of Hitler when his generals tell him he's lost the war.

Trump will lose his shit. He knows he can't do that in public.

Actually, I'm surprised he's not going to use his hotel where he could bill everybody for one last time. It's unlike him to pass up on an easy grift.

You can't have a political celebration at the White House.

And tell Jr that hundreds of people dying every day from COVID-19 isn't nothing.
