Donald Trump made a dramatic entrance at the first night of the Republican National Convention, drawing a raucous reception just two days after surviving an assassination attempt. Trump appeared at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee with a bandage over his ear, as supporters chanted 'Fight! Fight! Fight!'

The four-day convention started shortly after Trump secured a legal victory when a federal judge dismissed one of his criminal cases. He is expected to formally accept the GOP nomination on Thursday, facing off against Democratic incumbent Joe Biden in the upcoming election.

Senator J.D. Vance, Trump's newly announced running mate, and other speakers blamed Biden's economic policies for the current inflation. Trump's acceptance speech is being revised to emphasize national unity. Billionaire Elon Musk is reportedly set to donate generously to a new pro-Trump super PAC.
