President Trump and his family took the stage at the RNC Convention in Milwaukee to thunderous applause Monday evening.
This is President Trump’s first public appearance since the attempted assassination.
President Trump arrived in Milwaukee on Sunday just 24 hours after an attempted assassination.
A bullet took a chunk of Trump’s ear off after a gunman climbed a roof and shot at Trump from an elevated position during Saturday’s Pennsylvania rally.
Trump entered the convention with a bandage on his ear.
