Trump RNC speech tonight: Start time, channels, more speaking details for the former president's address
When, where and how to stream the former president's primetime address at the GOP convention in Milwaukee.
The Republican National Convention kicked off in Milwaukee this week just days after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. And Trump, who has made surprise appearances at the event each night with a bandage on his right ear, is scheduled to address the four-day convention tonight in at 9 p.m. CT when he will formally accept the GOP nomination. Trump is slated to speak for 90 minutes, closing out the final night of the RNC.
Guest speakers include Tucker Carlson, Eric Trump and Hulk Hogan. Kid Rock is set to perform right before Trump takes the stage.
Trump said he rewrote his planned speech in light of the shooting.
“The speech I was going to give on Thursday was going to be a humdinger,” he told the Washington Examiner on Sunday. “Had this not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches. ... Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now.
