First lady Melania Trump will address the RNC from the White House Rose Garden and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will speak from Israel. Both appearances have drawn criticism from Democrats
Republicans painted a dire portrait of America if former Vice President Biden wins the Nov. 3 election at a convention sharply scaled back due to the coronavirus pandemic, with Trump campaign adviser Kimberly Guilfoyle warning on Monday that Democrats want to “destroy this country.”
Potentially playing into the dark picture Republicans have painted, parts of Kenosha, Wisconsin, were smoldering after another night of unrest sparked by the shooting of a Black man by police. The man, who remains in intensive care, was shot in the back.With only 70 days until the presidential election, Democrats and Republicans are getting more aggressive in their messaging.
As many as half of U.S. voters are expected to cast their votes by mail this year, more than twice as many as in 2016, but not all state and local officials have the capacity to count mail ballots as quickly as those cast in person. Pompeo plans to speak from Jerusalem even though he warned diplomats in July that presidential appointees should not take part in partisan activity, according to an unclassified cable reviewed by Reuters and sent to all U.S. diplomatic and consular posts abroad.
Biden, 77, leads Trump, 74, in opinion polls, and Democrats tried to make the case at their convention last week that the former vice president would bring the steady and calm leadership needed to deal with the pandemic and its economic fallout.
