FORMER President Donald Trump is set to speak at the Republican National Convention for the first time tonight since the assassination attempt on his life on Saturday.
Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, managed to climb a roof at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, which had a clear view of former President Trump.
The bandits fired eight shots, bleeding the former president’s ear as he was escorted by Secret Service agents.
Trump is expected to take the stage at the RNC tonight at 9:09 pm CT.
Other guests scheduled to speak tonight include Tucker Carlson, Hulk Hogan, Mike Pompeo, Dana White, Alina Habba and more.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party is in disarray after it was revealed that President Biden tested positive for Covid-19.
Former President Barack Obama believes that “Biden’s path to victory has greatly diminished and he thinks the president needs to seriously consider the viability of his candidacy,” according to the Washington Post.
