Trump makes pitch to 'all of America' and solidifies hold over GOP in RNC acceptance speech

MILWAUKEE — On the final night of the Republican National Convention, former President Donald Trump accepted the GOP presidential nomination and predicted an “incredible victory” in November to raucous applause.

“I am running to be president for all of America, not half of America, because there is no victory in winning for half of America,” Trump said after he surprised the crowd by appearing onstage during the musical rendition of “God Bless the USA.” “So tonight, with faith and devotion, I proudly accept your nomination for president of the United States.”
