Former President Donald Trump is set to address the Republican National Convention on Thursday, marking his first public appearance since being targeted in an attempted assassination at a campaign event in Pennsylvania over the weekend. Trump, who arrived in Milwaukee on Sunday, was officially nominated as the party’s presidential candidate earlier this week.
The attack on Trump has put a heightened focus on the safety and security of the event. Despite the recent shooting incident, where a gunman opened fire during a rally, injuring Trump and killing one person, the former president decided to maintain his schedule and proceed with his visit.
In his speech, Trump is expected to unveil his running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, who will formally accept the vice-presidential nomination. The convention will also feature a lineup of notable speakers, including former presidential candidates, members of Trump’s family, and prominent Republican figures.
The event comes amid growing concerns about political violence and the nation’s stability. While Republican leaders have called for calm and de-escalation of tensions, a sense of anger and unease permeates the party. The convention will also highlight individuals associated with past political unrest, including the January 6 Capitol attack.

As the convention unfolds, the Democrats have adjusted their strategies in response, temporarily halting campaign ads and events to counter Trump’s narrative. The event is expected to draw protests and demonstrations, underscoring the tense political climate in the lead-up to the upcoming election.
Despite the challenges and risks, both parties are gearing up for a pivotal moment in shaping the political landscape moving forward. Trump’s speech on Thursday is anticipated to be a defining moment in his campaign and the Republican party’s efforts to regain the White House.
