Donald Trump accepted the Republican presidential nomination for the third time on Thursday night, vowing to end wars and international crises if elected again. Trump spoke at the Republican National Convention, recounting his recent assassination attempt and claiming divine intervention saved his life.
Trump warned that the current administration has put the world on the brink of World War III. He promised to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, saying they wouldn’t have happened under his leadership.
Trump demanded the release of Americans held abroad, threatening consequences if they aren’t freed before he takes office. He made false claims about building the southern border wall and inflation rates under Joe Biden’s presidency.
Despite emphasizing unity, Trump criticized Democratic leaders and promised the largest deportation operation in history. He praised Secret Service agents for their bravery during the assassination attempt and honored the volunteer firefighter who was killed.
Trump’s speech marked the end of the Republican National Convention. Next month, the Democratic National Convention will take place in Chicago, where President Joe Biden is expected to retain the nomination. Biden faces challenges and criticism, but remains the frontrunner.
Trump’s vows to end wars and crises resonated with his supporters. However, his critics dismissed his promises as empty rhetoric. The upcoming election will determine whether Trump’s message resonates with American voters.
