REPUBLICAN Convention [Milwaukee, Wisconsin]

DAY 1
Trump enters GOP convention wearing bandage over ear
"While Trump was shown on the video board in the arena, Lee Greenwood performed “God Bless the USA,” the song that plays at the start of every Trump rally.
At the conclusion of the song, the crowd broke out in a chant of “fight,” a reference to what Trump said to his supporters in Pennsylvania after getting to his feet following Saturday’s shooting." TheHill


Tim Scott at RNC:
Devil Came to Pennsylvania Holding a Rifle, but an American Lion Got Back Up on His Feet’.  
Breitbart



Sean O'Brien, Teamsters union chief, becomes first Teamster to
address RNC:
 
"The American people aren't stupid, they know the system is broken," he said. "We all know how Washington is run. Working people have no chance of winning this fight. That's why I'm here today, because I refuse to keep doing the same things my predecessors did." CBS

DAY 2
Vanquished GOP rivals make case for Trump's re-election 
in bid for unity--focus on 'Make America Safe Once Again'
Haley takes stage to mixture of cheers and boos at RNC: Haley, who
was former President Donald Trump’s fiercest primary rival, gave the former president her "strong endorsement" during the appearance in Milwaukee, ending months of speculation on if she would throw her weight behind her former rival. "You don’t have to agree with Trump 100 percent of the time to vote for him," Haley said. "Take it from me. I haven’t always agreed with President Trump. But we agree more often than we disagree."

Lara Trump shares sadness behind watching someone 'try to kill a person you love': She said she had an "entirely different speech"
planned prior to the shooting at Trump's Pennsylvania rally on Saturday that left one man dead and three others, including Trump himself, wounded.

"Nothing prepares you for a moment like that," she said. "Our family has faced our fair share of death threats, mysterious powders sent to our homes, tasteless and violent comments directed towards us on social media, but none of that prepares you as a daughter-in-law to watch in real time someone try to kill a person you love."
She continued: "None of that prepares you as a mother to quickly reach for the remote and turn your young children away from the screen so that they're not witness to something that scars the memory of their grandpa for the rest of their lives."

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio: talks about how we were “brought to the abyss” on Saturday. He talks about Trump building a movement of
Americans like
Corey Comperatore, the firefighter who died on Saturday shielding his family from the assassin’s bullets. Rubio eulogizes Corey who “lost his life the way he lived it: a hero.” He says that the people like Corey are the ones wearing the red hats and they are not “extremists” which Biden demonizes them as.
There is absolutely nothing dangerous or divisive about putting Americans first,” Rubio says and the crowd chants “USA!”
He says, “The only way to make America strong again is to make Trump our president again.”

DAY 3
America’s Populist Moment: 
Hillbilly Hero Vance Defines ’America First’
Vance says he will "never" forget "where he came from" in first speech as VP nominee: "To the people of Middletown, Ohio, and all
the forgotten communities in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Ohio and every corner of our nation
," Vance said. "I promise you this: I will be a vice president who never forgets where he came from." Vance highlighted some of the policies President Biden and other Democrats supported in Washington, saying that the result was that "
in small towns like mine in Ohio, or next door in Pennsylvania, or in Michigan and other states across our country, jobs were sent overseas and children were sent to war."

Kai Trump on Grandpa Donald Trump: ‘Truly Wants the Best for
This Country’":
 After being introduced by her father, Kai Trump spoke about how her grandfather is a “normal grandpa,” who gives his grandchildren “candy and soda” and who calls them and checks in on them. Kai Trump added that the mainstream media tries to make the former president “seem like a different person” than he actually is.

Alicia and Herman Lopez say that Joe Biden has not even said the name of their son Hunter who died on Biden’s watch: Herman talks
about how Biden’s idea of consoling the families when he met them at Dover was to talk instead about his own son.

Herman now reads out the names of all the 13 service members lost and the delegates in the audience repeat all the names with them. There names are:Marine Corps Lance Cpl. David Espinoza, 20, of Rio Bravo, Texas
Marine Corps Sgt. Nicole Gee, 23, of Roseville, California
Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Darin Taylor Hoover, 31, of Utah
Army Staff Sgt. Ryan Knauss, 23, of Corryton, Tennessee
Marine Corps Cpl. Hunter Lopez, 22, of Indio, California
Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum, 20, Jackson, Wyoming
Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Dylan R. Merola, 20, of Rancho Cucamonga, California
Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, 20, of Norco, California
Marine Corps Cpl. Daegan William-Tyeler Page, 23, of Omaha, Nebraska
Marine Corps Sgt. Johanny Rosario, 25, Lawrence, Massachusetts
Marine Corps Cpl. Humberto Sanchez, 22, Logansport, Indiana
Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, 20, of Wentzville, Missouri
Navy Hospital Corpsman Max Soviak, 22, of Berlin Heights, Ohio
There is not a dry eye in the crowd hearing these Gold Star parents. The crowd chants, “Joe must go.” The RNC is now showing a video of the families of the service members who died in the Afghanistan withdrawal. Biden looking at his watch when they brought the bodies of the young men and women home is a wound to these families.

DAY 4

‘I’m Not Supposed to Be Here Tonight’
Trump gets a big cheer when he shows the chart that he was trying to show to the rally crowd on Saturday of illegal border crossings from his administration’s to Biden’s. He touts his “no tax on tips” plan, which he explains he got from talking to a waitress. He talks
about protecting Social Security and Medicare. He says we won’t waste money on the “
Green New Scam” and will end the electric vehicle mandates “on day one.” He talks about how they are building auto plants in Mexico, but he will incentivize building those plants in the United States. “With great humility, I am asking you to be excited about the future of our country." 
He now talks about Corey Compertore, who was killed, and David Dutch and James Copenhaver who are in critical condition from the shooting. What a fine man he was,” Trump says about Corey. And the crowd chants, “Corey!” And Trump shows them Corey Compertore’s firefighter uniform and helmet which is on stage. Trump kissed his helmet.
