Donald Trump delivered his first public address since surviving a failed assassination attempt, relating an incident in detail that he called “too painful to tell.”

Trump took to the stage at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Thursday, donning one of his signature red ties and sporting a bandage over his right ear, where he was struck by a gunman’s bullet just five days ago.
