Donald Trump made a dramatic entrance during the first night of the Republican National Convention, receiving a raucous ovation just two days after an assassination attempt grazed his right ear.

With a bandage over his ear, Trump joined the convention floor to chants of "Fight! Fight! Fight!" Trump took his place with his children and announced running mate U.S. Senator J.D. Vance.

Trump is slated to formally accept the party's nomination on Thursday, facing incumbent Democratic President Joe Biden in the November election. The convention follows a dangerous incident at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania where a gunman killed one supporter before being shot dead.
