Speaking as he prepared to board a flight to the upcoming Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he is expected to be confirmed as the party’s candidate for president, Mr Trump said he now had a “chance to bring the country together”.

He said his speech would now be completely different instead of the “humdinger” aimed mostly at current President Joe Biden’s policies he had previously planned.

“Had [Saturday’s attack] not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches.

“Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now. It is a chance to bring the country together.”

    End of the party of Trump, maybe. They’d still probably invoke his name at every opportunity.

    End of the party of fascism and nihilistic corruption? No way, he’s a figurehead there.

      Totally agree with you. Fascism has never been defeated by voting and an assassination wouldn’t do much more than delay it at best.
