  • Trump said that he had "torn up" his prepared speech in favour of an address that would focus on unity in light of the assassination attempt: “This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together. The speech will be a lot different, a lot different than it would’ve been two days ago.”
  • Trump's son Eric Trump told CBS on Wednesday: “I think he’s changed his speech. … Went from a much tougher speech really prosecuting the administration for a lot of failures, for every failure that we know about that our country’s going through right now, to a very unifying speech, and I’m proud of that.”
  • Trump's speech will be buoyed by a favourable split-screen with the Democratic Party, currently engaged in a dispute over the viability of President Biden's candidacy.
  • Trump's Vice President nominee, JD Vance, used his keynote speech yesterday to make a direct pitch to the Rust Belt voters who will likely determine the election: “I promise you one more thing. To the people of Middletown, Ohio, and all the forgotten communities in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Ohio, and every corner of our nation: I promise you this — I will be a vice president who never forgets where he came from.”
