Former president Donald Trump will lead the Republican party in a third consecutive election.
The top of the Republicans’ presidential ticket came together on Monday, as Donald Trump swept a majority of votes from national convention delegates and announced Ohio Senator JD Vance as his vice presidential running mate.
The winner in 2016, he lost to current President Joe Biden in 2020. He will face Mr Biden again in November. Inside the convention hall, delegates flanked by Make America Great Again signs cheered wildly as state after state voted their support for Mr Trump’s second term. Anger and anxiety are coursing through the party, even as many top Republicans call for calm and a lowering of tensions.
