Trump brings a close to RNC with call to 'unite our country'
Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination for president before a raucous crowd at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Thursday, days after the weekend attempt on his life. Wearing a patch on his right ear that was clipped by a would-be assassin's bullet, the 78-year-old former president received a hero's welcome. Trump delivered a more toned-down speech after he said he had torn up a more aggressive version of his keynote address in favor of one he hopes will "unite our country."
WILL TRUMP'S TONED-DOWN RHETORIC HELP HIM WIN?

Biden weighing his options under isolation

President Joe Biden holed up at his beach house Thursday -- battling both a bout of Covid and calls by senior allies for him to abandon his 2024 reelection bid -- as the 81-year-old president found himself in both personal and political isolation. Top Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, reportedly have met with Biden to warn that his candidacy threatens his party's election prospects. Several Dems were quoted anonymously as saying that they believed the pressure would persuade Biden to tap out as soon as this weekend.

In the aftermath of the attack, one of the primary questions is how the gunman was able to secure a perch on the roof of a nearby building with a clear sightline of the stage where Trump was speaking.
