THE PRESIDENT: So were going to Ohio. Were going to have a very good couple of meetings, and were going to be there for about six hours. Then were coming back, and well be landing in New Jersey for some meetings. And we have a pretty busy schedule, to put it mildly.
Any questions, folks?
Q Mr. President, are you going to Ohio in part because youre concerned youre losing ground there?
THE PRESIDENT: What?
Q Youre concerned youre losing ground in Ohio?
THE PRESIDENT: No, I think were doing great in Ohio. Its a great state. They had the best year theyve ever had last year, prior to the virus coming in, and now its coming back very strong.
No, Ohio is a great state for me. Any other questions?
Q When do you expect to sign the executive orders?
THE PRESIDENT: Probably tomorrow afternoon. Theyre being drawn now. Well see what happens. Its possible well make a deal, but its also possible we wont. But I would say probably tomorrow afternoon or maybe the following morning.
Q Mr. President, have you decided where youd like to give your convention acceptance speech?
THE PRESIDENT: I have three or four choices. One is the White House. But we have three or four choices. Well be announcing it over the next week or so.
Q What are you considering?
THE PRESIDENT: We have some very good choices. Okay? Thank you. Thank you, everybody.
