Trump Delivers Longest RNC Acceptance Speech

Former President Donald Trump delivered the longest nomination acceptance speech in modern history, speaking for 93 minutes at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Trump formally accepted the Republican presidential nomination and reflected on surviving an assassination attempt, which he described in detail at the beginning of his speech. Joined on stage by his wife Melania and paying tribute to a firefighter who died at the rally, Trump reiterated his claims about the 2020 election and criticized President Joe Biden's record. The speech included off-script moments and touched on various issues such as the economy, immigration, and crime. Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson questioned Biden's mental fitness, citing a private meeting and concerns about Biden's capabilities, which the White House strongly disputed, emphasizing Biden's leadership praised by international allies.
