The latest dramatic development in a presidential campaign marked by unexpected twists and turns came two days after former President donald trump emerged victorious from an attempted assassination, sporting a bandage over his right ear.
 
When trump walked into the arena, very emotional, after appearing on tv backstage, the GOP delegates shouted enthusiastically as artist Lee Greenwood performed "God Bless the USA." That occurred only hours after the former president was officially selected by the convention to lead the Republican ticket against President Joe Biden in November.

With a wall of Secret service officials around him, trump did not address the crowd; instead, he smiled quietly and waved intermittently while Greenwood performed. His acceptance speech is slated for Thursday. Eventually, with a depressed countenance and restrained comments uncharacteristic of the unapologetic showman, he sat down with Ohio Sen. JD Vance, his freshly declared running partner, to listen to the rest of the night's remarks.
 
The boisterous reception demonstrated how much the people loved the outsider who defeated all Republican opponents, silenced the majority of conservative detractors, and now commanded allegiance throughout the party. He won the nomination in 2016 despite being at war with the party establishment.
 
Trump's hand-selected party leader, republican party Chairman Michael Whatley, declared as he kicked off Monday's prime-time national convention session, "We must unite as a nation and as a party." "We must show the same strength and resilience as President trump and lead this nation to a greater future."
 
Whatley and other Republican leaders, however, made it plain that they were not calling for unity with Biden and Democrats, who are still divided over concerns that the 81-year-old candidate is incapable of beating Trump.
 
Sen. Ron Johnson of wisconsin welcomed the party to his battleground state, which trump won in 2016 but lost to Biden four years prior. "Their policies are a clear and present danger to America, to our institutions, our values, and our people," Johnson said.
