What Went Down During President Trump’s Closing Speech At The RNC

Dorn is a very sympathetic public speaker and tells a horrific story about her husband’s killing. How this is a speech in favor of Trump’s reelection is less clear. But it’s consistent with Kellyanne Conway’s statement today that as people see more “chaos and anarchy,” they are more likely to support Trump. It seems unlikely that this is true, but it’s been a consistent message this week.

Ben Carson becomes the first person tonight to express his sympathies for the families of Jacob Blake and the people killed in Kenosha this week.

It’s perhaps worth noting, Nathaniel, that Dorn’s daughters are publicly opposed to his widow’s appearance at the RNC. They said he was not a Trump supporter and “would not want his legacy to be for his death to be used to further Trump’s law-and-order agenda.”
