Former President Donald Trump has arrived in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention a day after he was targeted in an attempted assassination at a campaign event.
Trump's airplane touched down Sunday, the day before the four-day event kicks off with thousands of Republicans coming together to formally elect him as their 2024 presidential nominee.
The shocking scenes of violence at his Saturday campaign rally that injured his right ear, killed a spectator and injured another set a dark backdrop for the convention, which is typically four days of party pageantry, political speeches, policy platforms and the presidential nominee's keynote address.
The attack on Trump has put a heightened focus on safety and security of the event.
The former president said in a social media post earlier Sunday that he was going to delay his trip by two days because of the attempted assassination “but have just decided that I cannot allow a ‘shooter,’ or potential assassin, to force change to scheduling, or anything else.”
Trump is not expected to speak at the RNC until Thursday night.

& Daughters of America dinner when Trump’s shooting took place, yesterday.
Her presence required S/S detail and, as a result, diverted Secret Service in
Western PA from the Trump rally held in Butler, Pa, where the shooting took place.
I didn’t know you could paint! ;)
I’m SO HAPPY that President in Exile Trump is OK, but seriously - you couldn’t PAY for this kind of publicity and he’s going to take full advantage of it, showman that he is. :)
MAGA! Trump LANDSLIDE 2024!
Why? Leftists just came within a fraction of an inch of killing Trump, and they are certain to have more assassination opportunities before the presidential election. They are not terrified, they are preparing for their next opportunity.
PERFECT PICKS! :)
I was invited to the Wisconsin Club once and It. Was. Awesome!
Fox Point? Man, you scored in the Husband Arena, LOL!
They’ll never charge Brandon for any of his remarks about President in Exile Trump in the crosshairs.
I fled Dane County years ago, so I can’t help you with the Lawyer referral. Sorry!
Amen...
I was referring to the tattooed, pierced, sexually deviant, and drug addled freaks running around out there. Of course, the Deep State will continue to press on. Trump needs to drop the SS and get his own security.
