How are Washington Republicans showing up at the RNC in Milwaukee?
Manage episode 429575965 series 3303135
Last night in Milwaukee, Ohio senator J.D. Vance accepted the Republican nomination for Vice President of the United States and took his place as former President Donald Trump’s running mate.
Vance’s first convention speech possibly - maybe - upstaged the cameo earlier in the night from Babydog, a rotund bulldog owned by West Virginia Governor Jim Justice.
This was always going to be a big week for Republican politics – but I think it’s safe to say that there’s been even more eyes and attention on this convention, as it’s marking the first major event for former President Donald Trump since the attempt on his life last Saturday.
Here to break down the Republican National Convention so far is Jim Brunner, politics reporter for The Seattle Times.
