A very sensible official from the Biden-Harris re-election campaign sent a Thursday night after former President Donald Trump’s final speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, saying Trump omitted things in his remarks.
Trump, the 2024 Republican presidential nominee, talked about avoiding assassination at a weekend rally in Pennsylvania and then highlighted the successes of his first term from 2017 to 2021.
The Biden-Harris campaign said the lengthy speech did not mention Project 2025, a presidential transition task introduced in April 2023 through a handful of Heritage Foundation trustees that is connected to the Trump campaign.
“It seeks to locate the disorders with the United States, not to provide solutions. But after all, it was Donald Trump who destroyed our economy, took away our rights, and failed middle-class families. Today, he continues his presidency with an even more excessive vision. of the direction this country should take. “
O’Malley Dillon said Biden is running “for an America where we defend democracy, not diminish it, where we repair our rights and our freedoms, not suppress them. “

Trump’s comments come as he discusses the wars that have erupted in recent years, creating a stark contrast between his four years in the White House and those of the Biden administration.
“To everyone, I say: we need our hostages to return. And they had better come back before I take office, or they would pay a very high price. “
“With our victory in November, the years of war, weakness and chaos will be over,” he added. “I don’t have any war. I haven’t had any war apart from ISIS, which I defeated. But it is a war that has begun. We didn’t have any wars. I can avoid wars with a phone call. “
Several Americans were taken hostage during Hamas’ invasion of Israel in October 2023.

Former President Donald Trump declared that Sam Brown, the Nevada Republican Senate candidate who served in the U. S. military, was injured by an improvised explosive device explosion.
Trump’s comments about Brown came Thursday in his speech at the Republican National Convention, where he strongly condemned the Biden administration’s complicated withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
“And by the way, we have in this room a guy running for United States Senate from a wonderful state, Nevada, named Sam Brown, who paid the price,” he added.
Trump suggested to Nevada’s electorate that they vote for Brown, whom he described as a “true hero,” this fall.
“He probably paid the highest value ever paid for any candidate for office, and I think he’ll do very well. He is running against a user who is not good, who is not respected, a lightweight. . . He is a true hero, in fact, a wonderful user and he is applying. I hope everyone votes for Sam Brown.
“One of the worst speeches Trump has ever made,” he said. “Cut, incoherent, with very little energy, strangely strange aside, I’m literally surprised that he’s so serious. And, of course, the lies required are lies and surely there is no new tone. “
Throughout his speech, Trump recounted Saturday’s horrific murder and discussed key issues on the Republican agenda: illegal immigration, inflation and an end to the wars between Ukraine and Russia and between Israel and Hamas.

“Less than four years ago, I gave this administration the most powerful border in the history of the United States, however, you can see it in the graph that saved my life. . . it’s the graphic that kept my life,” Trump said at the Republican National Convention on Thursday, as the map appeared, he got the impression on the screen of the passage of illegal immigrants.
“Oh, there it is, that’s pretty good, wow,” Trump said after noticing the graph was now displayed on the RNC screen. “The last time I posted this painting, I never had a chance to take a look at it. Without this painting, I wouldn’t be here today. “
Although former President Trump’s planned speech made no mention of President Biden’s call at all, Trump deviated from the script Thursday night and spoke twice about the current president.
“They probably wouldn’t have done the damage that Biden did; they will only use the term once: Biden. I’m not going to use that term again,” Trump said. “Only once. “

People live like this,” he added.
Trump said the Nov. 5 election “can’t come fast enough. “

Former President Donald Trump took a moment to congratulate his wife Melania on her speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday.
“On this trip, I am deeply honored to be accompanied by my incredible wife, Melania,” Trump told the crowd in Milwaukee in an emotional speech.
“Thinking of you now, my countrymen,” he wrote. The sun rises again. Let’s get together. Now. “
The former president welcomed the letter.
“And Melania, thank you very much. You also made something beautiful. A letter to the United States calling for national unity. And that took the Republican Party by surprise.
“Some very serious people have said that we should take this letter and put it on the Republican platform. That would be an honor, wouldn’t it?”
Former President Trump praised the Secret Service agents who protected him in Saturday’s assassination attempt in his highly anticipated speech to the Republican National Committee on Thursday night, amid growing calls for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign because of what lawmakers call serious security issues that led to Trump’s assassination attempt. . on weekends.
The firm’s furious complaint comes as Republicans and some Democrats are calling for answers from the Secret Service about cases related to the attempt on Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. The shooter known as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks and the FBI is investigating his exact motive.
“The duty falls on me,” he told ABC News. I’m the director of the Secret Service, and I have to make sure that we do an investigation and allocate resources to our staff if necessary. “He also criticized his comments about a “sloping roof. ” which posed a security problem.

Former President Donald Trump, describing his assassination attempt, told the Republican National Committee that he was not scheduled to be at the conference, something the crowd disagreed with.
Trump describes the moment a gunman tried to kill him last week in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“I’m supposed to be here tonight,” an emotional Trump told the crowd in Milwaukee.
“Yes, you are,” the crowd chanted in response. “Yes you are. “
“A lot of other people have asked me what happened and that’s why I’m going to tell you what happened,” Trump said. “And I’ll never tell you this again because it’s too painful to say. “
Trump then began recounting the times that happened in Butler, Pennsylvania, over the weekend, where the shooter, known as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, opened fire. The shot narrowly missed, hitting the former president’s skull and puncturing his right ear as he turned to look at one of his immigration charts displayed on a screen at the event.
“Blood was running everywhere, and yet in a way I felt very safe, because I had God on my side,” Trump continued. “The amazing thing is that before the shot, if I hadn’t moved my head at the last moment, the assassin’s bullet would have hit the target perfectly and I wouldn’t be with you tonight.
Thanks to this, Trump said, “many lives have been saved. “
“But that’s not the explanation for why they didn’t move, the explanation is that they knew I was in serious trouble, they saw all the blood and thought I was dead, and they just didn’t need to leave me. And you can see that love written in their faces,” he said.
“I’m supposed to be here tonight,” Trump said, as the crowd responded, “Yes, you will be. “
“I stand before you in this arena only by the grace of Almighty God,” Trump said. “Looking at the news over the last few days, a lot of other people are saying it’s a providential moment. “
Trump then recounted the moment when the iconic photo of the fist in the air was taken by Associated Press photojournalist Evan Vucci as he took off surrounded by the Secret Service.
“Once my clenched fist went up in the air, the crowd knew I was OK and shouted proudly for our country, like no crowd I’ve ever heard before,” Trump said. “For the rest of my life, I will be grateful for the love shown through this giant audience of patriots who bravely endured on that fateful night in Pennsylvania. “

Trump then walked over to the Comperatore helmet and firefighter vest that were placed on the level next to the former president as a tribute before asking for a moment of silence.
“There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for others,” Trump said. “It is the spirit that forged America in its darkest hours, and it is the love that will return America to the pinnacle of human achievement and greatness. “
Former President Donald Trump spoke Thursday, the fourth day of the Republican National Convention, where he officially accepted the party’s nomination for president of the United States.

They just separate. But this administration is doing everything possible to avoid them,” Trump will say according to prepared statements.
“They come from jails, prisons, intellectual establishments and asylums, and terrorists in degrees never before observed. Meanwhile, our crime rate is increasing, while crime statistics around the world are falling,” he will say. “That is because they hand over their murderers, drug traffickers, terrorists and criminals of all forms and bureaucracy to the United States. “
“We have a landfill for the world that laughs at us,” he said.
“Tonight, United States, this is my wish: I will not allow those murderers and criminals to enter our country. I will protect our sons and daughters,” he said.

He added that the Republican Party is “expanding” its tent.
“You can see with this convention that there is a lot of unity and, frankly, a lot of Democrats are in favor of another position. They don’t like their own candidate or their vice president. And President Trump has delivered a wonderful message of optimism and hope, and I think you’re going to hear that tonight. And I think our party will continue to grow and attract new people,” Scalise said.

Habba told the audience that he was walking through the streets of Manhattan when a Trump supporter shouted “God bless you and President Trump!”
“This guy didn’t know he had been on the phone with the president himself,” Habba recalled. “And without delay he asked me to take a break, give my phone to the boy and I was talking to him for a while and thanking him for his support. “
Habba became emotional as she spoke about her for Trump, telling the crowd that the former president “loves other Americans and loves this country. “
“I think [former President] Trump is going to draw a blank on whoever he gets,” one aide said, adding that Biden looked like he was “on the way out. ”
“I don’t think it matters. I think no matter who they have, their bank is pretty shallow and weak right now. “
“The power of God over the life of this man cannot be denied. There is no denying that God protected him. There is no denying that it was a millimetric miracle that could have saved this man’s life,” he said. Could it be? That Jesus Christ preserved him during such a period?”
Sewell’s comments drew loud applause from those in attendance.
He continued: “Could it be that when we prayed for him, when he came here to the circular table in Detroit, Jesus asked and received, that we sought him and then he discovered protection? Could it be that the King of glory, the Lord God, strong and powerful , the God strong in battle, protected Donald Trump because he needs to use him at a time like this?”

“He’s willing to reach a network that top Republicans wouldn’t reach. President Donald Trump, I think he’s a New Yorker, I think that serves him well, right? He has that cultural awareness and cultural intelligence, in cities like “My House , in Detroit, where the scene is so polarizing in terms of black and white voting,” he said.
Former United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo sharply criticized President Biden on the final night of the Republican conference in Milwaukee for his “incompetent withdrawal” from Afghanistan just three years ago.
“For those of you who served there, know this. Know that your service is honorable, that you saved American lives, and that the Pompeos love and appreciate you for what you have done for United States. Thank you and may God bless you both. “
In 2021, the administration’s hasty decision to withdraw troops from Afghanistan when the Taliban took control of the country in a matter of days led to increased security risks and challenges. During the latest evacuation efforts at Kabul airport, several incidents of this generation put evacuees and U. S. military personnel at risk, including a suicide attack outside the airport in August 2021 that claimed the lives of thirteen U. S. soldiers.
“The second war in Gaza: President Biden would possibly not even communicate the fact that Americans are still being held there through the Iranian regime,” Pompeo said. “Compare that to what we did when Americans were wrongfully detained. President Trump sent me to North Korea to bring back 3 American pastors. We took them home. We brought them back to our home with dozens of other hostages. And we did it without paying a single penny to the terrorists. “

Hogan, when asked about his participation in the 2024 RNC, had “grown tired of remaining silent. “
“You know, I sat down and watched the borders collapse, I saw the economy collapse,” he said. “I looked at the value of gasoline, the value of food, everything, I’m freaking out. “
Hogan also spoke about Trump’s assassination attempt that took place last Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania, and said it prompted him to leave the former president’s presidential campaign.
“When my hero, Donald Trump, was shot, I learned that I could no longer remain silent. You know, I had to step up, I had to be a genuine American, like all those genuine Americans here and Donald Trump. I have a voice too and I want people to know that it’s time to speak up, it’s time to stop being silent,” he said.

Hogan said he was “shocked” when he learned of the assassination attempt on Trump.
“It shook me to the core when this happened,” he said. “When I saw him stand up with that fist in the air and blood on his face, as a warrior, as a leader, I knew that’s what United States needed. I knew it from the beginning, I was just afraid to speak. “
“He loves this country, he loves his family, he loves everyone in United States, and that’s why other people have another view of him because of what they write about him in the press. That’s not who he is,” she said.

“Obviously, I have to hear him be very compassionate on border security. Very strong in the fight against inflation. Present a broad vision of how America is going to be restored… what it is going to do to make America great again,” Abbott emphasized in an interview with Fox News Digital.
Abbott, who spoke at the conference Wednesday night, noted that “other people across the country are excited and angry about what’s happening at the border. They are for other people who will fight for them.
“That is also why this factor is so important in these elections. This is one of the reasons why Donald Trump will win. Inflation and the open border. What happened with Joe Biden’s open borders is destroying the country and other people here and across United States, they need a replacement and they will get it,” Abbott argued.

Vivek Ramaswamy, businessman, businessman and former Republican presidential candidate, has been a member of the Republican Party in RNC 2024 all week.
“The Trump campaign, the Trump motion and the Republican Party fear anything that offers the other side,” Ramaswamy told Fox News Digital.

“Mass Deportation Now!” Signs ” were noted on the floor of Congress, and this point was stressed by the former acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Tom Homan, who said that a new Trump term would bring new enforcement measures and more evictions.

The former president’s granddaughter argued that Trump’s symbol in the media is “really him,” arguing that for her he is simply a “normal grandfather. “
Lorenzo Sewell, pastor of the Church, will speak at the NCR on Thursday (Getty Images).
MILWAUKEE – The Rev. Lorenzo Sewell, who will address Republicans at the RNC on Thursday night, explained to Fox News Digital why the black electorate is turning to former President Trump despite some denials from Democrats.
“When President Donald Trump came to our church last month, you might see other black people there. We know this construction is without a doubt, because in my church I saw firsthand the eyes of rappers, preachers, teachers , who are not necessarily affiliated with the Church, pay attention to President Donald Trump.
A USA Today/Suffolk University ballot released last month found that, for Biden, among Black voters it has fallen about 20 percentage points in the key states of Michigan and Pennsylvania since the last election.
A Fox News vote showed Biden trailing Trump on 64 issues compared to the black electorate in July 2020. Today, Biden’s lead is 42.
Asked via Fox News Digital what differentiates Trump from previous Republican presidential candidates who failed to resonate with black voters, Sewell replied, “He’s a typical politician. “
