DON CHANGES DIRECTION: Trump's Convention Speech Rewritten After Shooting, 'I Threw It Out' [DETAILS]

posted by Hannity Staff - 7.15.24

Trump is making some changes…

According to an interview with The Washington Examiner’s Byron York, former President Donald Trump is making edits to his RNC convention speech following the attempt on his life in Butler, PA; “I threw it out last night,” Trump told York.

“I’ve been fighting a group of people that I considered very bad people for a long time, and they’ve been fighting me, and we’ve put up a very good fight,” Trump said. “We had a very tough speech, and I threw it out last night. I said I can’t say these things after what I’ve been through.”

“I basically had a speech that was an unbelievable rip-roarer,” he said. “It was brutal — really good, really tough. [Last night] I threw it out. I think it would be very bad if I got up and started going wild about how horrible everybody is and how corrupt and crooked, even if it’s true. Had this not happened, we had a speech that was pretty well set that was extremely tough. Now, we have a speech that is more unifying.”

“I’d love to achieve unity if you could achieve unity, if that’s possible,” Trump said. “There are many good people on the other side. … But there are also people who are very divided. Some people actually want open borders, and some people don’t want open borders. The question is can those two sides get together? Can sides where you have people who want to see men play in women’s sports and you have a side that doesn’t understand even the concept of allowing that to happen [get together]?”
