Trump chosen as republican nominee

Donald Trump has been nominated by the Republican Party as their presidential candidate, with an official acceptance anticipated in a speech on Thursday, the final day of their convention. His nomination was expected after he became the sole contender following the early March withdrawal of his last challenger, Nikki Haley. Trump is preparing for the November 5 election, likely facing President Joe Biden, who has recently been criticized within the Democratic Party for a perceived lackluster debate performance and mixing up names, including that of Vice President Kamala Harris. Despite concerns about Biden’s fitness for office at age 81, no concrete signs suggest he will be replaced. Trump, meanwhile, is safe after a weekend assassination attempt and will refocus his acceptance speech on American unity.
