Trump—With Bandaged Ear And Misty Eyes—Appears At Republican Convention (Photos)

President Donald Trump made his first major public appearance Monday at the Republican National Convention after an attempted assassination against him Saturday, entering the arena visibly emotional and with a bandage over his right ear, where he was shot while speaking in Pennsylvania.

A misty-eyed Trump walked into the arena as the crowd applauded him and Lee Greenwood sang his “God Bless the U.S.A.” before Trump took his seat in between his running mate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, and Florida Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla.

Trump’s two adult sons, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., were seated behind him, and House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., was seated next to Vance.

"... and House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., was seated next to Vance ..."

Is it too early to have Vance turn to him and bitch-slap him upside the head for giving in to the DEMs too many times?

He looked to me incredibly calm and peaceful, and sometimes on the verge of tears as he listened to the speakers.

I think President Trump is a man who greatly understands the value of Gratitude.

The unity crap was nothing but another free prime time gift from the nets and a trap. The rats are right back at it today. I hope Trump went back to his original speech

The entire hall was tearing up knowing how close this was.

Seeing Trump brought tears to my eyes..you can see he’s a different man..he’s been through so much..you can even see a few times he is closing his eyes..he is probably on heavy painkillers having any kind of injury on the ear its so so painful its going to take time for this great man to heal, to recover, but he will never forget what happened to him

I’ve been watching on YouTube, the New York Post feed.

I don’t know if they’ll run it again.

Mr. Trump definitely looks different to me. I would say how could he not be changed?

F that link.

It tried to make me pay to subscribe, gave me four ‘free’ articles and then flashed through three of them so I couldn’t read about President Trump at the RNC.

“I didn’t mind getting shot at; it was getting shot that shook me up” - Bill Withers, I can’t write left handed

No matter how strong he is, nor how composed he appeared after that bullet clipped his ear, some type of post traumatic stress has to surface at sooner or later. That’s what I was thinking while watching him tonight.

I didn’t see ‘PTSD’.

I just saw a man who might have been a little tired, but was thoroughly engaged and very appreciative of the proceedings.

I thought I saw Tucker Carlson sitting in the same row, to President Trumps right, a few seats down from President Trump.
