 The pledge from former President Trump's vice presidential pick, J.D. Vance, as he accepted his party's nomination at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Vance spoke about his Appalachian roots, introduced his mother, the former drug addict, and praised the man at the top of the ticket, Donald Trump. He can stand defiant against an assassin one moment and call for national healing the next. Mr. Trump got praise from his oldest grandchild, Don Jr.'s 17-year-old daughter, Kai.
