The third day of the Republican National Convention is focusing on foreign policy and military issues, and is featuring the first speech by Sen. JD Vance of Ohio as the running mate of former President Donald Trump. Trump, who survived an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania over the weekend, has long expected to face President Joe Biden in November's election. Biden has adamantly refused to drop out of the contest since his disastrous debate against Trump in late June. As the convention was getting underway in Milwaukee Wednesday, the White House announced that Biden tested positive for Covid. CNBC's TV and digital reporters are covering the convention live from Milwaukee, Washington, and New York City.

☆ There’s No Zealot Like a Trump Convert
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-17 | by ( Jess Bidgood | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Today, I’m looking at how the Republican National Convention has become a conversion story. His long history of disparaging Trump, whom he has called an “idiot” and “cultural heroin,” does not make him less suited for elevation within his party. Rather, it makes him a better avatar for the tale Trump wants to tell. Vance is a political convert, whose remaking of himself and his political image in order to thrive in Trump’s Republican Party proves and reinforces Trump’s power. And he will serve as a capstone for a convention that has been a conversion story unto itself.

At the end of the interview, Biden asked Holt to come and talk to him sometime about "what we should be talking about." Similarly, in that interview, Biden was soft-spoken and misspoke at times.

For a third night, thousands of Republican delegates, donors and party leaders crowded into the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee to celebrate former President Donald J. Trump’s campaign to return to the White House. Though the event began just two days after an assassination attempt against him, the mood was boisterous, with attendees donning makeshift ear bandages in support of him. Mr. Trump’s vice-presidential pick, Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio, along with Donald Trump, Jr., were slated to headline a night of speeches mostly focused on foreign policy. Here’s what New York Times photographers are seeing on the ground in Milwaukee.

Balancing the ticketPresident Joe Biden's selection of Vice President Kamala Harris is a notable example of balancing the ticket. Even Trump, in selecting former Vice President Mike Pence, appeared to be trying to balance the 2016 ticket. But this time, instead of seeking balance, Trump chose a candidate in his own image, doubling down on the MAGA brand with a loyalist.

Vance of Ohio to be his running mate is the latest example of the former president’s willingness to flout political convention. But then Mr. Trump has never been a traditional candidate. The last time Mr. Trump named a running mate, he had more pressing concerns. Mr. Trump selected Mike Pence, who had close ties to evangelical Christian voters and had served 12 years in Congress, to allay their fears. The idea was that he could help Mr. Trump deal with insiders and power brokers.

Trump chose Senator J.D. With Vance’s hardscrabble upbringing and Trump-aligned ideology, the senator is Trump’s attempt to appeal to those voters. Instead of balancing the ticket with someone who could expand Trump’s appeal to new voters, Trump has anointed the senator as the future of the Republican Party. The party that Trump took over in 2016 — one guided by establishmentarians like Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan and John McCain — is now unrecognizable. (As an author and private citizen, Vance said in 2016 that Trump might be “America’s Hitler.” Later, as he ran for office, the Ohioan embraced Trumpism.)

Thousands of Trump supporters in Milwaukee on Monday night hailed their leader, elevating him from MAGA superhero to saint-like status. For Trump’s millions of American fans, Monday night was a validation of their faith in God and the ex-president and the righteousness of his mission. A list of Black Republican and female Republican lawmakers gave speeches, offering a somewhat misleading perception that the GOP has a deep and diverse bench. One GOP source said speechwriters at the convention had thrown out all their pre-written material for the week’s top speakers and started again. The ex-president has a new chance at politics and life in the wake of his assassination attempt.

Vance of Ohio to be his vice-presidential nominee pairs him with a kindred spirit on trade, taxes and a tough stance on China. But it is their shared affinity for a weak dollar that could have the most sweeping implications for the United States and the global economy. In most cases, Mr. Trump likes his policies to be “strong,” but when it comes to the value of the dollar, he has long expressed a different view. That’s because their money is worth so much less than the dollars that they need to make those purchases. “As your president, one would think that I would be thrilled with our very strong dollar,” Mr. Trump said in 2019, explaining that U.S. companies like Caterpillar and Boeing were struggling to compete.

Trump has gone from being a longtime instigator of political violence to a victim of it. Vance of Ohio, instantly blamed Mr. Biden, citing his sharp rhetoric. But the images of Mr. Trump with blood streaked across his face after being grazed by a would-be assassin’s bullet raise the question of how far language should go in a heated campaign. At the same time, Mr. Biden and his team have made clear that they will not back off efforts to demonstrate that Mr. Trump is a budding dictator who is dangerous to the country.

Vance of Ohio, Donald J. Trump’s newly chosen running mate, has made a shift from the Trump critic he was when he first entered politics to the loyalist he is today. It was a shift both in style and substance: Now, on topics as disparate as trade and Ukraine, Mr. Vance is closely aligned with Mr. Trump. Here’s a look at where the senator stands on the issues that will most likely dominate the campaign ahead and, should Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance win in November, their years in the White House. AbortionMr. Vance opposes abortion rights, even in the case of incest or rape, but says there should be exceptions for cases when the mother’s life is in danger. As he ran for Senate in 2022, a headline on the issues section of his campaign website read simply: “Ban Abortion.”That said, Mr. Vance, like Mr. Trump, opposes a national abortion ban, saying the issue should now be left to the states.

Once an acerbic Trump critic — attacking Mr. Trump as “reprehensible” and calling him “cultural heroin” — he won Mr. Trump’s backing in his 2022 Senate race by wholly embracing his politics and his lies about a stolen election. Mr. Vance, a venture capitalist in Silicon Valley who became best known for writing the memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” did not forget it. Mr. Trump announced his choice in a post on his social media platform Truth Social on Monday, as the Republican National Convention was getting underway in Milwaukee. He said that Mr. Vance was “the person best suited” to be his potential vice president.
