Cheering GOP delegates formally nominated Donald Trump for president at Monday's Republican National Convention kickoff.
A delegate wears a hat with pins during the Republican National Convention Monday, July 15, 2024, in Milwaukee. Cheering GOP delegates formally nominated Donald Trump for president at Monday’s Republican National Convention kickoff, less than two days after an assassination attempt on the former president and shortly after he announced, who has long been the presumptive nominee, will lead the GOP in a third consecutive election. The winner in 2016, he lost to current President Joe Biden in 2020.
“We should all be thankful right now that we are able to cast our votes for President Donald J. Trump after what took place on Saturday,” New Jersey state Sen. Michael Testa said as he announced all of his state’s 12 delegates for Trump. “The enemy is not the Democrats, it is an ideology,” Ramaswamy told the crowd at Heritage’s “Policy Fest” event.
“We are going to have the convention that we have been planning for the last 18 months,” he said. “We are a combination of relieved and grateful that the president is going to be here and is going to accept the nomination.” The activists called attention to issues such as abortion rights, economic justice and the war in Gaza. As they marched, the atmosphere was festive, with music playing over loud speakers, a man strumming a guitar and vendors selling T-shirts and buttons supporting both Republicans and Democrats.
