From Fox News: Former President Trump will refer several times to the “current administration” or the “current leadership” in his address to the Republican National Convention, but highly placed sources say the former president will not use the word “Biden” once.
Trump on Thursday will formally accept the GOP presidential nomination during the closing night and culminating moment of the 2024 convention.
The former president’s speech to the party faithful inside Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum and to a national television audience is likely to be north of an hour, sources told Fox News’ Bret Baier, the network’s chief political anchor and executive editor of “Special Report with Bret Baier.”
The report states that Trump’s speech will “lay out the case for the ticket” and will focus on unity. This comes after he narrowly survived an assassination attempt at a rally on Saturday.
According to a scheduled released earlier, Trump is expected to take the stage at 9:09 pm. All his family is expected to attend, including former First Lady Melania Trump, and his daughter, Ivanka Trump.
Meanwhile, the Democrat Party is in an upheaval, as many top Democrats have been calling for Joe Biden to step out of the race, and he reportedly has agreed to do so.
It was just announced Thursday evening that, according to multiple sources, Biden has agreed to withdraw from the race as early as this weekend, and a statement is being prepared for him.
It is still uncertain who the Democrat Party will chose as their nominee to run against Trump.
