Donald Trump accepts Republican presidential nomination



WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has accepted his party’s re-nomination on a White House South Lawn stage.

He broke the tradition by using the executive mansion as a political backdrop while defying pandemic guidelines to address a packed largely mask-less crowd.

Trump said, “We have spent the last four years reversing the damage Joe Biden inflicted over the last 47 years.”

“At no time before have voters faced a clearer choice between two parties, two visions, two philosophies or two agendas.”

He presented himself as the last barrier protecting an American way of life under siege from radical forces.

US President Trump also declared the Democratic agenda as “the most extreme set of proposals ever put forward by a major party nominee.”
