Why even consider anywhere else? ATL helped deliver the white house in a huge way.

NEW YORK ALL THE WAY!

We could go visit some Trump properties while in town. 😁

And I'm wondering why someone with the screen name "brooklynite" would want to have it anywhere else but the greatest city on earth?

Do you people know how hot it is in Atlanta in the summer? It's not nicknamed "Hotlanta" for nothing you know.

Ah, yes you could visit a few drumph properties.

Pre Covid I sometimes walked by a drumph building (not on 5th Ave) and gave the finger (hidden from cops) as i passed the 3D "TRUMP" Letters!
BLARRRRGGGHHH!

As for ..

Perhaps because I know what a convention does to the people who actually live there?

Delegates will be in an air conditioned auditorium. They will stay in air conditioned hotels. They will travel in air conditioned vehicles. They will eat, drink and party in air conditioned restaurants and bars. Atlanta would be the best choice.

Texas shouldn't get one penny of our money until they rejoin the human race.

Been there, suffered that (not that Atlanta is much better). Hold it elsewhere.

I won't go there until they become a part of civilized society. Neither should the Democratic Convention.

As a life-long New Yorker, you know where I want the convention!
