Trump’s party: What to watch on GOP convention’s third day
CLEVELAND — The 2016 Republican National Convention is now officially Donald Trump’s convention.
To Trump’s dismay, the first two days saw a rowdy racket on the floor over efforts to quash an anti-Trump rebellion, plus a hubbub over wife Melania Trump’s speech that borrowed passages from Michelle Obama. Yet as the convention reached its halfway point, delegates casting votes in the roll call officially made Trump their presidential nominee.
That clears the way for the GOP to try to focus on showcasing the mogul-turned-showman-turned-politician during speeches and other events on Wednesday — including an address by Trump’s running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Another high-profile speech will be by Trump’s former primary rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
