Trump Gets Hero's Welcome at RNC

CNN
About this episode

Dana and the gang are at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where Donald Trump was given a hero's welcome by his most ardent supporters just two days after surviving an assassination attempt. While the atmosphere in the hall was electric, the former president appeared subdued and even emotional as he stood with his new running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. Joining Dana are CNN's Audie Cornish and Kristen Holmes, Semafor's David Weigel, and Astead Herndon of the New York Times.
