Two days after surviving an assassination attempt, former President Donald Trump made a dramatic appearance at the Republican National Convention's opening night, sporting a bandage on his right ear. Despite his acceptance speech being scheduled for Thursday, Trump received a raucous welcome from GOP delegates, who cheered as he appeared onstage and waved to the crowd while Lee Greenwood sang "God Bless the USA." Accompanied by Secret Service agents and showing a more subdued demeanor than usual, Trump observed the night’s speeches alongside his newly announced running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance. The enthusiastic reception highlighted the crowd's deep affection for Trump, who has transformed from a political outsider to a dominant force within the Republican Party.
