hearing today's news that a florida judge has dismissed the criminal case against him on the charges of mishandling top secret documents and its being west, sped but surviving the assassination attempt and pleading who really play on tv screens and newspaper front pages, all surrounded by sooty, dense tongue blast, a secret service agents is worth a 1000 pictures of present by looking old. and calling for com. i'm feel go invalid . and this is the day i the, you know, the political work in this country has gotten very heated time to cool down you know, what happened yesterday was a tragedy for this country, disagree because of the whole american democracy. it is an indication of just how fractured our country is right now. so scary. i mean,

already are democracy deals like it's on a plus of those? or may disagree. we are not and to be, you still, you know, it was strong. and some people, you know, say, go, america like less white politics must never be a little balanced god from good to. if you also, i'm today the kings of your representing home to spain, to a massive celebration in measure it located the idea of and then what was achieved yesterday in historical terms is extraordinary and remarkable. and it deserves a rental applause from everyone. welcome to the day we begin in new york city of milwaukee, where the republican national conventions under way just 48 hours after the policy . so whitehouse that candidates, former president donald trump,

survived an assassination attempt about shooting which has provided the secret service with lots of questions to answer was up and the account paid. the republican gathering is going ahead as planned. after monday's proceedings got underway, delegates officially nominated donald trump as the posse sec candidates to take on the democratic incumbent job by him for the position of president over the coming days. they'll also approve the policies policy platform for the november connection . donald trump's acceptance speech was already going to be closely watched, but in the wake of the narrow, the escaping on assassin's bullets. he says he's throwing out the draft speed and weather instead, deliver a different message, calling for nashville new jersey. meanwhile, the investigation into how issue to that could have got so close, continues in a country that gun violence has become a fixture of life. these particular gunshots still act more

loudly than usual. the moment the bullets stopped, the conspiracy theories began flying. do whatever they can to get rid of for up until they have to do they try. and so we're here to learn whether or not they're not going to happen in a close to political unity shops, live, or presidents. joe biden cooled and americans to dial down the rhetoric. there is no place in america, this kind of violence for any violence, ever period or exceptions. we can't allow this violence to be normalized 2 days after the share too many questions remain. how could an armed attack a gets within shooting range of the former president? did the secret service ignore early warning, some of the audience? and what was the motive clever picture of the shooters emerging, but some information is conflicting. he was a member of a local gun club and

a registered member of the republican party thoughts he also donated to democratic cause. as in the past, police believe the weapon he used to shoot to trump belongs to his father and was purchased the degree. the officials all set sounds like they described as a suspicious device in the shoot. this vehicle has been decided by bomb technicians with bad supporters. of the former presidents have been housing gatherings around the country outside trump tower, new york crowds phones to show that support was strong. trump is now in milwaukee attending the republican national convention outside the venue, his supporters, how the video trump, himself, has said he wants to use this historic moment to bring the country together.

ramifications of the assassination attempt and not yet fully known budget as most definitely raise the stakes for this is election dramatically. dr. cynthia miller addressed as a professor of the american university and director of beth polarization antics dreams and research and innovation lab. she joins us from washington, d. c. a. welcome to the w. a president. bind, decide. it's time to cool down the political rhetoric in the united states. donald trump said he's rewritten his speech for the r n. c to focus on unity. do you make a connection between painted political rhetoric and the address action? or i do actually think that the political rhetoric in this country is connected to violent outcomes. however, what i would say is, i think the problem is just as just as big among ordinary people as it is among political leads even after the shooting among people i know very well on social

media, i would hear, you know, see things like you report, you so. ringback or, you know, basically indicating this is a deserved attack, and i think that's really dangerous and risky when you have the ordinary people, ordinary citizens on the ground, just supporting and calling for political violence. and we're in a dangerous situation. and the statistics on this end are very bad in terms of large numbers of americans 20 percent in reason. so i saw being willing to support sort of both islands or thinking that that's a necessary tactics to achieve their outcomes. ok, so is it getting worse? because a quick google reveals an uncomfortable number of attempted shootings and stoppings of us politicians on the time is over the last few years. so yes, i think it's getting worse here. and of course, also overseas. i mean, we have seen attempted assassinations or political assassinations in germany,

in the u. k. in recent years, and we've had these kid, nothing thoughts and the us against it. and governors, as well as the junior are 6 types of event and then and then tons of stress is the talk on nancy percy's home and other so this definitely is getting worse. it's definitely an escalating type of situation. but we've also seen this before. and in the political assassinations of the 19 sixty's, the attempt on a ronald reagan's life and 1981. we're reverting sort of to an era in which political assassinations and threats against elected officials, are seen as a legitimate tactics by violent actors. so even though in this case it should be clear, we still don't know the motive. and so remember that ronald reagan attack was, you know, someone who wanted to impress a movie star. and you know, we don't actually know for sure what the motive was in this case. however, the outcome is still quite risky in terms of escalations affordable balance. okay, so looking back over,

that's about recent history. i'm. are you saying that it was bad? it leveled off and now it's worse. oh, has it always been so the bottom bubbling, a bubbling away in the background. it was always bad. i think we had a very volatile period in the 19 sixty's, obviously where political assassinations were a tactic where we saw assassinations, martin luther king, it presidential assassination and never saw that all the way up into the early 19 eighties. and then we really didn't. i mean, in my own lifetime, uh, that certainly was not something that was a possibility. i will say that over the last couple of years that is exactly the kind of thing i was expecting to see. i think others like me in the field. we're expecting to see this because that's the level of threat we were seeing those threats, escalating not just against sitting elected officials, but candidates, librarians, school board members elected officials at the local level,

really receiving death threats. and when you see that type of thing, plus you see the successful attempts a political assassination abroad are plots that are broken up as you've had in germany as well. the well, the like, okay, i get a sense for gives me so it's very interesting honestly sweet face and bass, last question. and so does, does this assassination attempt against donald trump? does that mock a turning point? you expect things to get back to that, or is this just a not on the upper trajectory? do you think we're going to see a change in language among elected officials? we're already seeing that calls for unity. they're nervous, of course, they're scared. this is a wake up call, a reckoning moment for them. the question is, you know, is the genie out of the bottle already kind of be put back in. and i certainly what i've seen in my ordinary citizens indicates that there's no going back for them. they are in greece and many of them on the left say this is justified because to

reboot your cell and trump was using violent roderick. and on the right, there's a lot of conspiracy. there is a false flag, ideas and a blame against media. so yeah, it's not a, i don't think we're, we're in a situation where we're likely to see a decline in the political violence at the moment. thank you for guiding us through that circulated profession. profess cynthia and the address from the american university in washington was we've been here in the united states has a long history of political violence. and even though both cons, that is on non calling on their support is to tone down the rhetoric. the political polarization which culminated in sundays, attempted and skews me. unsubsidized attempted assassination of the former president is something that both sides have helped stoke a bullet, graces the head of a u. s. presidential candidate and assassination attempt that is highlighted just how polarized this election has become. as november approaches,

both the democratic and republican campaigns of sorts to frame the upcoming vote. as an ex essential buttons campaign has used trump custom aggressive rhetoric to portray the former president as an authoritarian and a threat to us. democracy calls those who will pull, oppose in vermin. it talks about the blood of americans, the poison that go and the same exact language used in nazi germany. choices, claire, a, tom trump, campaign is about him. not america, not you. donald trump campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future. he's willing to sacrifice our democracy, put himself in power extreme marissa rick has long shaped trumps approach to politics. along side false narratives of

a stolen election in 2020 trumpets consistently one supporters that bite and will destroy the country. if re elected with 4 more years abiding the hordes of illegal aliens stampeding across the borders will exceed 40 to 50000000 people. medicare, social security, health care, and public education will buckle and collapse. these are the stakes of this selection. our country is being destroyed. and the only thing standing between you and it's of little ration is me. but with both sides framing this election as a choice between freedom and destruction. a climate of fear and trepidation is building amongst votes. has a royce, as pole in may found, almost 2 thirds of americans said they were afraid that quote, extremists will commit acts of violence following the election. but the violence has come early in the wake of the attack,

both trump and president button called for america to re unite temperature in the correct. and this country has gotten very heated. it's time to cool down. but years of polarization have already taken root. and the attempt on trump's life may only inflame the situation, so the as well, the trump campaign team wasted no time to, to come back convention and then didn't months of speculation of his vice presidential running mate the name alongside donald trump on the republican ticket . will be j. d events, recent weeks. so i'm just advancing, but just a clear favor of the status of from ohio used to be a photo critic of donald trump, even quoting human video. so most of the things that he's not fully embrace the mca movement as has been criticized by his response to the trump shooting, posting on ex, just an hour later. but the central premise of the bite and campaign is a president. donald trump is an old sort of tag and flashes to must be stopped. i

told costs about rest. rick, is that direct me to president from attempted assassination? well, the w's political team is at the milwaukee confession. here's our washington bureau chief in his poll. i'm the choice of j defense for vice president graduates. first of all, really interesting, very few now, and you don't remember now since we are teaching social is a social media platform. it was kind of underwhelming, someone expected all terms himself coming on stage. maybe this is big, but no, you put it out there on a troop social, but it was interesting to see the people here surround me. i said, really, really? i love this. think about the senator from ohio is very conservative. when it comes to boston whites, he's one of the strongest opponents, for example, for ukraine age. and of course, he's one who was very critical of

a strong pete said he didn't devote 5 in 2016, even a call to him a monster and said that to use america simpler. but no, i being off of his job, the obviously changed his mind. and that's innocent pulse now dumb to address the last bays of associate professor political science at emory university. she joins us from washington. welcome to dw dr. let's start with the selection of, of j, the vans system. donald trump's vice presidential running mate. what do you think is behind that choice? m a j d dance has proven on the sunday morning talks of show circuit and other than use that he is able separate defender of trump's agenda. he is very articulate in terms of how he presents that platform. and he exuded a certain level of loyalty. and so one of the things that a lot of people ask in all of the interviews that all the potential the candidates went through is how you would respond. if it turns out that there's

a contested election result, such as trump tried to attempt in 2020, and j d man's was actually very articulate in defending his role in that and how he would defend his running mate. you know, if he were, you know, in a position to certify or not certified the results of an election, if he were vice president of the united states. so i think those kinds of things really did, you know, help his star rides if you will, and helped him to distinguish himself from some of the other candidates who sometimes equivocated or who were not always as articulate as he has been in terms of defending the trump agenda and what was behind his conversion if i can put it that way from going going from being so anti trump to being so roger about the full, the president or you know, i think that that's certainly an interesting thing and it's something that will be used against him in the election campaign, but i mean,

he talks about his own conversion and ethics. some people are going to question the motives of doing that. he had political aspirations, it was a way to distinguish himself from other candidates. it was also a way to get donald trump's endorsement when he ran for us senate. and so i think that there are going to be questions about whether or not i, i, uh, the instance conversion is instrumental and opportunistic, or whether it is genuine and heartfelt. but suffice to say, senator jay, the vance has kind of been firmly in the populace wing of, of the republican party. and given his relative use his 39 years old, he could be the face of what populism looks like in american politics. for the next generation. ok, so prince. so presuming a trump fix or in the basement from doesn't it isn't a victorious and he will be that in full, full, 5 years time of that's what the republican party will look like. um, i mean, i think that i think he would have incredible case to,

to be made that he is the future of the republican party. i mean, we're looking at somebody who's in millennial, we're looking at somebody, you know, at a best selling. what kind of, you know, memoir slash cultural critique, looking at somebody who's a 1st term sen. he is somebody that borrowing something catastrophic and tragic happening is going to be, you know, on the political scene for the foreseeable future. let's talk about the events of the weekend that we're almost catastrophic. i'm donald trump, he's not president, and he wasn't killed. how do you assess the significance of saturday evenings attack? it is still very disturbing and traumatizing that a presidential candidate team that close to death. he's also a former president, so even as a former president, he is entitled to a secret service detail. so the idea that somebody got within about a $150.00 yards of shooting him and only missed by, you know, an inch or

a few centimeters or millimeters is something that is certainly concerning for our security apparatus. and it also does speak to the tenor in the text, the city of our pilots. it's today that somebody would, you know, feel info then to try to attack donald trump. now we must be clear about the fact that we're still trying to figure out what the motive of the sooner was and since he was killed by a sniper, we can't interrogate him directly. but the f, b, i going through his phone and trying to go through any records that he would have left to try to get gain a sense of what actually motivated this particular task. but this is something that regardless and once political affiliation is something that's disturbing, people should be able to go to political rallies and peace and support their candidates and peace without worrying about getting shot at whether it's the candidate themselves or the people who were, you know, in the crowd, unfortunately were side and in one case kills except that this is not, you know, political violence in the united states seems to have been a bubbling

a long for us from, for quite a number of years. a representative shot that here a why nationally scaling back just bubbling along as well. i mean, yes, certainly president or a president. trump is the only politician who has been shot out before and he certainly, you know, you know, sometimes people are shot at because of mental illness. sometimes people are shot at because of the proliferation of guns in american society. sometimes people are shot at because of political motivations, but it's still really disheartening and really disturbing to see it. and it's especially disturbing when you recognize that donald trump has more protection than most political candidates than your school board candidates, or even your congressional incentive and gubernatorial candidates. so this is still, you know, really distressing. and this should be a wake up call for americans to tone down the political rhetoric. i think we have to wait to see whether or not that's going to happen. and at least for presidential politics. you know, it's been a long time since we have seen

a presidential candidate or president get that close to being killed by an assassin . so briefly that not dear thing, those calls for unity and come from the 2 kinds of it's all of a likely to have any effect a so i have to admit, i am not the most optimistic about that, but i'm going to away data. so i'm talking to you now, so which means that i don't have an opportunity to watch the republican national convention right now, but i'm going to be paying attention to the speeches we've heard that most of the speakers have altered their speech to account for the assassination attempts, and so i think the big question is, are we still going to hear defiance? are we still going to hear other ring of democrats and when they say unity, what do they mean? they main unity amongst republicans? or do they mean unity across the country and reaching across the aisle to democrats? so i think we have to wait to see what they say, and then we're going to be paying a lot of attention to thursday. when donald trump gets his acceptance speech. does

he give the type of acceptance beach that his mom in the sense of his inaugural address in 2020, which was very dark and very negative? or does he try to present himself as you know, the 2nd coming of, of a ronald reagan ro? i think we're really going to have to pay attention and we don't know the answer to that question. yeah, that's fascinating. i'm not in the system. we thank you for political science just dumped it under the last week from emory university. thank you so much. thank you. but also today donald trump receive some good news. i had of the republican convention to judge and florida dismissed one of the legal case against him. mister trump had been accused of illegally holding onto classified documents. after leaving office, the judge threw the case out saying the lead prosecutor bit appointed unlawfully and didn't have the all sorry to bring the case. it's another major legal victory for the full with the president as he thinks that we to, to the white house. and the statements on his truth social platform, he called on the judges to dismiss all the pending legal challenges against him,

which he described as a witch hunts. before we go, newly crowned european football champions of spain arrived back home today to the heroes. welcome from ecstatic and grateful nation. after being congratulated by the spanish king, i'm the prime minister. huge crowd stood out in madrid to celebrate between the trophy, separated to the city and the open till us sunday nights to one victory of england gave spain a full view in title and see men to beth, placed in the history books as the confidence most prolific your wheels, the dw is the whole braces in the trades and sends us these updates on tonight's welcome home street kazi. thousands are celebrating the spanish staying here tonight. the the
