MILWAUKEE -- On the fourth and final day of the Republican National Convention, former President Donald Trump gave a highly anticipated speech, which he said beforehand would call for unity following his assassination attempt.
However in his first speech since the incident, Trump leaned into his usual talking points, slamming President Joe Biden, Democrats and other critics on a wide variety of issues from the economy, immigration and crime.
For over an hour, Trump went off script much to the crowd's delight. The former president told them he was grateful for their support after his brush with death but argued that the country needed to be fixed due to Biden's policies.
The night also included wild speeches from guests such as Hulk Hogan and Eric Trump, who echoed some of the former president's rhetoric bashing Biden and the Democrats.
When Trump takes the stage tonight, sources close to the former president tell ABC News he will have on stage with him a helmet and firefighter jacket that belonged to Corey Comperatore, who was killed during the attempted assassination on the former president in Butler, Pennsylvania.
ABC News has reached out to Comperatore's family for comment.
As a video played on the big screen about Trump encouraging Republicans to "protect" the vote, several people in the crowd were clapping their hands and whooping.
Trump stood standing while the video played.
A "we love Trump" chant broke out after it ended.
Country music star Jason Aldean was seen in the front row of Trump's VIP box tonight. Trump stood next to him upon arriving at the convention earlier.
Aldean recently dedicated his song "Try That in a Small Town" to Trump in the wake of the assassination attempt.
