President Trump has shown he will be nearly omnipresent at the Republican National Convention. Here are some key takeaways from the first night of RNC2020.
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump aggressively asserted control over the Republican National Convention on Monday, overshadowing the prime-time speakers, as he made clear he wants voters to focus on him.Trump. Trump. And more Trump.
But the president is not one to cede the stage. On Monday, he soaked in gauzy homage from supporters. He watched triumphal footage of his presidency and attack ads on Biden. And he inserted himself in the program several times, a likely preview of the next three days.Republicans are not known as the party of diversity. But on Monday, the party showcased two of its stars, Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina and the state’s former governor, Nikki Haley, to try to tell a different story.
Trump’s campaign doesn’t expect large gains among minority voters, but it does hope that those same voters are not energized to turn out in great numbers for Biden.Trump complained last week that Democrats “held the darkest and angriest and gloomiest convention in American history.” But on opening night of their convention, Republicans are doing their share, spreading fear of a Biden victory on Nov. 3.
South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott was to argue Democrats are campaigning on a “cultural revolution” for a “fundamentally different America.”The apocalyptic messaging comes as Trump’s campaign strategists are aiming to motivate their own base with dire warnings of a Biden win — and to do their best to depress votes for the Democratic ticket from moderate voters who aren’t sold on Trump either.The Republican National Convention is a testament to the campaign Trump wishes he could run.
Trump made an appearance at the White House with everyday Americans, without recommended social distancing and with no one wearing a mask. “There’s only one person who has empathized with everyday Americans and actually been fighting for them over the past four years, and that is President Donald Trump,” said RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.
