- Dallas is reportedly the favored location for the convention, potentially scheduled after Labor Day, although the RNC states that specific details regarding location and date remain speculative.
- RNC Senior Advisor Danielle Alvarez confirmed the event, attributing it to Trump's leadership and dedication to the “America First movement.”
