 The convention in Milwaukee comes less than 48 hours after the former president narrowly escaped an assassination attempt that rattled the very foundation of U.S. politics. Trump's announcement of his vice presidential choice could come today, the first day of the convention. Earlier today, some well-timed good news for Trump got the day off to a positive start for him and his party as the federal judge presiding over Trump's classified documents case dismissed the prosecution because of concerns over the appointment of the prosecutor who brought the case.
