5:06 am
delivering a very lengthy acceptance speech that lasted for over an hour and half force the beginning very personal, very poignant, recounting what had happened to him on saturday on stage at that rally in butler pennsylvania. he said he would tell the story now and would tell the story now and would not tell it again. the balloons dropping. donald trump onstage nowjoined by all of his family, his children, baron trump is not here but his other children are here, his grandchildren with him as well. our panel are still with us here. rodney, lengthy speech, what did you make of it? it was

5:08 am
is the way he talks about immigrants in this country is divisive. the way he talks about workers in this country is divisive. he wants to lay a lot of the blame on worker displacement, trade. he is ignoring technology and globalisation force that our economy is different than the one he is talking about. i am not sure if you peel back the layers, what he proposed was really an agenda that moves this country forward, especially the idea of tariffs which is essentially a tax on the american people. that is not a solution for some of the challenges we are seeing. rodney, the speech well received by those in the arena. it started with him recounting what happened on stage but did turn into somewhat of a trump
5:09 am
speech. a call to action. i have been to a lot of trump speeches, rallies, state of the union addresses, this one was a very tame. it went off script numerous times because that is what he likes to do. you are right, it wasn't much different speech. the choreographic nature —— was a much different speech. i am shocked was that we started out physically with kid rock ben lee greenwood and only trump would require an opera singer to close out the night. at opera singer to close out the niuht. �* ., . ., night. a touching moment during the speech. _ night. a touching moment during the speech, onstage _ night. a touching moment during the speech, onstage with - night. a touching moment during the speech, onstage with him - night. a touching moment during the speech, onstage with him as| the speech, onstage with him as he spoke, the uniform of the fire chief that was killed during that attempted assassination of the former president on saturday and at one point he walked over and kissed the uniform.— one point he walked over and kissed the uniform. that was a ureat kissed the uniform. that was a great tribute _ kissed the uniform. that was a great tribute to _ kissed the uniform. that was a great tribute to a _ kissed the uniform. that was a great tribute to a brave - kissed the uniform. that was a great tribute to a brave man i great tribute to a brave man who did what all dads would want to do to protect their
