The framed copy will be delivered to Mr Trump by former state representative Perry Hooper Jr , who proposed the resolution, according to reports.

The resolution passed unanimously by the state party’s executive committee stated that Mr Trump was one of “the most effective Presidents in the 245-year-history of this Republic”.

It cited Operation Warp Speed for delivering “safe and effective Covid-19 vaccines in record time”, the “largest tax cuts and reforms in American history”, withdrawal from “the job-and-trade-killing Trans-pacific Partnership and NAFTA”, and appointing “three constitutional conservative justices to the US Supreme Court”.
