Trump Accepts Nomination After Surviving Assassination Attempt

The Republican National Convention culminates with former President Donald Trump giving a prime-time speech to accept the party's presidential nomination in Milwaukee, his first public address since surviving an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally. Trump plans to focus on unity and the accomplishments of his first term, signaling a shift in tone due to the recent attack. Viewer interest in the convention has waned, with a notable drop in viewership from Day 1 to Day 2. The Secret Service is under scrutiny for security lapses that allowed the assailant, Thomas Matthew Crooks, to breach the perimeter and fire shots at Trump. Investigations are ongoing to determine the specifics of the security failure.
