Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama spoke Monday at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, two days after an assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania.
“We see how Biden and Harris keep making things worse and we know the current president is not capable of turning things around,” Britt said, alluding to concerns among some Democrats that President Joe Biden is too old to competently serve another term in office.
“His weakness is costing us. Our opportunity, our prosperity, our security, our safety: each diminished, all in decline. Just like the man in the Oval Office,” Britt added.
During the convention, delegates will adopt a party platform and Trump will formally accept the Republican nomination for president. On Monday, Trump named Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate.
The Republican National Convention kicks off Monday, July 15, in Milwaukee against the backdrop of an apparent assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump this weekend. PBS News will have gavel-to-gavel special coverage each day of the convention, with a continuous stream from the main floor.
