President Trump said he would likely accept the Republican nomination in a live address from the White House in August.
"It's the easiest alternative," Trump told Fox & Friends on Wednesday. "I'll probably do mine live from the White House."
The White House is "the least expensive from the country's standpoint," Trump added.
The president also said that the media would be permitted to be in attendance. "We're going to let the press go in and watch it, but you know, socially distanced," Trump said, alluding to restrictions placed on gatherings due to the coronavirus.
The Republican National Committee canceled convention events in Jacksonville, Florida, last month after coronavirus cases surged in the state. Some events will take place in Charlotte, North Carolina, where a number of party delegates will meet.
