“Our planet is on the brink of breaking up World War III,” Trump said, adding, “This effort is about solving problems. »
“I say that often,” he went on to Trump. Si you take the 10 worst presidents in United States history, think about it, the 10 worst, you raise them, you probably wouldn’t have done the damage that Biden did. “
During the Republican National Convention, four basic lines of attack against Biden’s policies were repeated by speakers: that Biden is guilty of the inflation basically caused by the coronavirus pandemic; that Biden’s reversal of Trump’s harsh measures to curb immigration resulted in record numbers of undocumented immigrants, that wars broke out in Israel and Ukraine because Biden was not as feared as Trump by our adversaries, and that Biden is guilty of the precipitous withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan that resulted in the deaths of thirteen infantrymen.
Speakers at the conference also criticized Biden for his age, his mistakes and what they see as a general decline in cognitive abilities.
“Even in his heyday, he had poor judgment,” former Rep. Lee Zeldin of New York said Wednesday of Biden’s recommendation to former President Barack Obama not to order the army’s raid on Pakistan that killed terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden, “and they only got worse with age.

“Corey! Corey! Corey!” the crowd chanted.
Trump walked over and kissed the firefighter’s helmet on stage, which he said had been through firefighters and the victim’s family.
A key goal of the Republican National Convention was to further humanize Trump in the eyes of voters. On Thursday, the former president did so while recounting the shooting that occurred on Saturday at his crusade rally in Pennsylvania.
“I plan to be here tonight,” said Trump, wounded in the shooting.

Trump delivered his keynote address at the Republican National Convention on Thursday, officially accepting the GOP nomination just five days after surviving an assassination on the crusade road.
“As you know, the assassin’s bullet almost took my life. Many other people have asked me what happened,” Trump said. “And therefore, I will tell you what happened and you will never listen to it for a second. ” , because it’s too painful to say. “
The former president then recalled what happened at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

“I need to go out to unite our countries,” he told the newspaper.
In earlier speeches this week through his daughter-in-law Lara Trump and his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. , a trend emerged in which those close to the former president faithfully made much of their comments seeking to humanize him. The conference also heard a good percentage of harsh complaints from President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on issues such as inflation and the increase in the number of undocumented immigrants crossing the United States southern border.
Videos of Trump taken before Saturday’s shooting were broadcast several nights, mocking Biden’s age and portraying Democrats as incompetent and dishonest.
