Donald Trump, delivering the headline speech at the Republican National Convention, declared his confidence in achieving an ‘incredible victory’ in the upcoming U.S. presidential election. Addressing a jubilant crowd in Milwaukee on Thursday, Trump accepted the Republican nomination amidst party enthusiasm over his survival from a recent assassination attempt and the perceived unraveling of Joe Biden’s reelection bid.
In his first public address since the attack by a 20-year-old gunman, Trump spoke about the harrowing experience. He described the incident, which left him with a minor ear injury and resulted in a bystander’s death, as a moment of divine intervention. ‘Four months from now, we will have an incredible victory,’ Trump asserted, promising to be a president for ‘all of America, not half of America.’

Trump recounted his narrow escape, stating that the murderer’s bullet missed him by a fraction and attributed his survival to divine intervention. ‘I am not supposed to be here tonight,’ he said, highlighting the role of divine grace in his survival.
The convention, marked by chants of ‘USA’ and high-profile appearances, saw Trump’s family in attendance.
His son Eric energized the crowd with a chant to ‘fight, fight, fight!’ while Trump’s wife Melania, notably absent for much of the campaign, joined to boost but did not speak—a rare departure from convention norms.
The event also featured notable personalities like Hulk Hogan and Tucker Carlson, who highlighted the significance of Trump’s survival as a historic moment. Despite ongoing scandals and legal battles, Trump, now delighted by unified Republican support, expressed optimism about a potential return to power.

As Trump makes headlines, concerns grow over Joe Biden’s ability to continue his campaign. Reports suggest that Biden may face pressure to step down in favor of Vice President Kamala Harris or another candidate. Senior Trump advisor Jason Miller stated that Biden’s potential withdrawal would not alter Trump’s campaign strategy.
