Protests, speeches and city life: Images from the RNC in Milwaukee
The Republican National Convention has come and gone, bringing with it celeb sightings, speeches upon speeches, protests, quiet streets and patriotic garb.
Things started earlier than expected, with former President Donald Trump arriving in Milwaukee on Sunday, just a day after his attempted assassination at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. The convention officially got underway Monday with Trump announcing JD Vance as his vice presidential running mate.
Tuesday's convention was marred by a shooting. Columbus, Ohio, police officers, who were in Milwaukee to help with the RNC, shot and killed Samuel Sharpe Jr. less than a mile from the convention perimeter.
Wednesday and Thursday continued with convention proceedings, growing traffic to local business and active protests in the city — and culminated in Trump's record-breaking acceptance speech.
