Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, addressed the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, seeking to rally support for his campaign and secure a second term. He emphasized his desire to represent “all of America,” not just a part of it, claiming that winning only for half the country wouldn’t be a victory.
Trump also recounted the recent assassination attempt on him during a rally in Pennsylvania. He described the incident as serious and highlighted his belief that he was under attack. While acknowledging the close call, Trump maintained a sense of confidence and attributed his safety to God’s protection. He also honored the victim of the shooting, Corey Comperatore, with a moment of silence.
Trump’s speech comes at a time when President Biden’s campaign is facing internal pressures from within the Democratic Party, with some urging him to end his bid for re-election.
