Donald Trump to Announce Running Mate at Republican National Convention
Former US President Donald Trump is set to announce his vice-presidential running mate at the Republican National Convention. The finalists are Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, JD Vance of Ohio, and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum.
The convention, attended by 50,000 people, will feature themes like ‘Make America Wealthy Again’ and ‘Make America Safe Again.’ High-profile speakers, including Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, will address the crowd. Trump is expected to speak on Thursday night.
RNC co-chair Lara Trump mentioned that celebrities will also be among the speakers, but former Republican Party stalwarts like George Bush, Mike Pence, and Mitt Romney are not on the guest list. The convention is a formality for Trump to be the party’s presumptive nominee, having won 2,265 delegates in the primaries.
