Donald Trump made his first public appearance since getting shot in an assassination attempt, with a white bandage covering his right ear as Republicans gathered to nominate him as their presidential candidate for the third time.
The former president entered Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee on Monday to a standing ovation that lasted several minutes, during the Republican National Committee’s convention. He walked to a box near his family and stood next to US Senator JD Vance, whom he tapped earlier in the day as his 2024 running mate.
