Anger and anxiety loom over RNC after Trump assassination attempt

- Donald Trump's campaign chiefs designed the convention opening this week to feature a softer and more optimistic message, focusing on themes that would help a divisive leader expand his appeal among moderate voters and people of color.
Then came a shooting that rattled the foundation of American politics.
Suddenly, the Democrats’ turmoil after the debate, the GOP’s potential governing agenda and even Trump’s criminal convictions became secondary to fears about political violence and the country's stability. The presumptive Republican nominee and his allies will face the nation during their four-day convention in Milwaukee unquestionably united and ready to “fight,” as the bloodied Trump cried out Saturday while Secret Service agents at his Pennsylvania rally rushed him to safety.
Anger and anxiety are coursing through the party, even as many top Republicans call for calm and a lowering of tensions.
Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, known for his sunny and optimistic vision of Republican politics, suggested online the attempted assassination had been “aided and abetted by the radical Left and corporate media incessantly calling Trump a threat to democracy, fascists, or worse.”
Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, another likely convention speaker, offered a more somber tone during a Sunday appearance on NBC.
“We’ve got to turn the temperature down in this country,” Johnson said. “We need leaders of all parties, on both sides, to call that out and make sure that happens so that we can go forward and maintain our free society that we all are blessed to have.” #Politics #RNC #Trump

NO ONE at that rally or any where thought about Prayer!
However, I am not surprised, because this world is going to Hell in a hand basket 🧺!!
Indoor venues take windage outta the formula.
Properly channeled, anger is an important element of courage.
Biden shouldn't of said those things!
Representative Johnson is such a whimp.
NO. NOT BOTH SIDES my friends.
Boths sides didn't call Trump Hitler. Both sides didn't say Trump is a threat to Democracy. Both sides didn't say its tIme to put Trump in the Bullseye. OK????
mex alert
@@tr7938 Correct. I'm not.
@@HappyYummmy 😆😆😆
If I have to listen to another video with Joe mentioning unity, and acting like he is the slightest bit sorry, I will puke. His campaign promise was about unity, and we know that was a lie.
Homie says “We got this.” I believe him.
Yeah he’s tough lol 😅
You left out UNITY!!!!!
Many Americans do not know how blessed they are to have Trump.
They mock the one who fights for them.
Jealous of Trump's success
@@galaxya7338 very true. The deep state hates him since he's exposing the Democrat's corruption
R.I.P Shannen Doherty
