Emotional Trump Appears At The RNC

The first night of the Republican National Convention begins in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with an emphasis on “unity” in the aftermath of Saturday’s assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump.

This afternoon, Trump announced Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate. The 39-year-old senator from the Rust Belt—whose bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy was viewed by many as a chronicle of the forgotten men and women that Trump’s 2016 campaign and MAGA movement championed—is tied as the youngest Republican nominee for vice president in history with Richard Nixon, who was also a 39-year-old first term U.S. senator when President Dwight Eisenhower picked him as his running mate in 1952.
