12:11 pm
a handle on it the curfew which was imposed by the county earlier tonight did have no effect as you can clearly see there still protesters now out in about in the middle of the night here and can osha local time protesters are very very upset very very angry they are asking the question what has changed in america in the last 3 months since the murder of george florida in minneapolis what has changed they think not so much and only this can be an explanation for what we're seeing in this video where police officer in can osha shoots of like the f. african-american and black man with 7 shots in the back. stephanie was reporting and staying in the us republicans have formally nominated donald trump as that candidates and of on this presidential election he'll face the democrats kind of as joe biden trump secured the nomination on the 1st day of the republican national
12:12 pm
convention in charlotte north carolina in his speech the president accused his opponents of trying to rig the election. this election is a battle for the soul of america america it's all on the line president truman probably didn't you know mansur unless you are up to land your american dream what the republican national convention likes and numbers it's certainly making up for in passion. your destiny ladies and gentlemen. your freedom and liberty and the american dream. is yet. in a scaled back a vent donald trump junior partner was among the key speakers on the opening night this theme land of promise donald trump's of the sun himself went on they are trying to portray him democratic candidate joe biden as
12:13 pm
a puppet of the radical left whose agenda would mean the end of the law and order woman people of faith are under attack you're not allowed to go to church but mass chaos in the streets gets a pass. it's almost like this election is shaping up to be church work and school nurses writing looting and there was a america is such a great country a narrative also picked up by the missouri couple who went viral when they were filmed pointing their guns at black lives matter protesters you were watching from quite neighborhoods so make no mistake no matter where you live your family will not be safe and the radical democrats america. donald trump made an unscheduled appearance at the convention center in charlotte after he won the nomination to vie for a 2nd term. trump repeated his unsubstantiated claim that the democrats would steal the election we caught him doing some really bad things we have to be very
12:14 pm
careful because they're trying it again with this whole 80000000 mail in ballots that they're working in the only way they can take this election away from us is if this is a rigged election we're going to win this election right. thank you for a 4 day convention gives the republicans a chance to reassure the american public is concerned has grown over the handling of the covert crisis and racial injustice donald trump is expected to use every one of those days to prove he's ready for a fight. well volta will include joins me this too for some analysis. almost 180000 americans have died the corona virus pandemic buck spent approaches rocking the country. and his team are they trying to turn that into an advantage somehow of course they're going to have to
12:15 pm
try donald trump for being an incumbent president and all the advantages that come with being the incumbent president for being in a good position to win reelection is nonetheless in a very difficult spot i mean none of the polls are in his direction not only is his approval rating only in the low forty's biden is up in most polls both nationally and states anyone $7.00 to $10.00 points americans only 23 percent of americans say in a recent a.p. poll that the country is going in the right direction and less than 40 percent of americans say that the trump administration has been handling the coronavirus pandemic in a good way let's not forget the top of black lives matter and the coronavirus also historic economic crisis so what we saw yesterday and what we're going to be seeing over the course this campaign is either distracting from these issues or trying to find a way to make it look like donald trump has actually been on top of these issues we already saw testimonials from people regarding the coronavirus saying that trump has done a good job we've seen donald trump in a more empathetic
12:16 pm
a listening position where we saw him meeting with people hearing their stories last night in the opening of the of the convention and as it comes to what's going on now restock because of what happened in kosher this yet another black man being shot it's going to be come down between social injustice which is what the democrats are really pushing versus the law and order what the trump campaign is going to be pushing and wherever you see yourself is probably where you're going to be siding talking of the democrats if you compare the tone of this kind of convention it's only day one of a compared to the democrat convention last week what's the difference i actually find a very interesting how similar they are both are walking is a very fine line of darkness and lie. to use joe biden's terminology at last week both are trying to paint an optimistic picture if of course you vote for me whether it's all trump whether it's joe biden and a very very dark picture if you don't the democrats trying to say america is a great country american do so much better but america will not be the country you
12:17 pm
know anymore if donald trump wins america cannot handle or withstand another 4 years of donald trump and tell them ministration trying to say the exact same thing so much is great we made america great again before the coronavirus and then we have the greatest economy job growth especially among minorities ever let's go back to that it's very difficult to walk that line remember donald trump started his his presidency with american carnage that is a very dark place to start and the other thing the trump ministration wants to do is try to paint the biden campaign and democrats as calling america racists calling individuals racist nobody wants to think that they're racist don't want to think they're voting for someone who's racist so donald trump by saying this is nonsense might make people who are skeptical about that more comfortable in voting for donald trump donald trump usually thrives on these become ventures with lots and lots of support is cheering him on this is of different type of conventions it's very virtual how's he doing with that belief if. he's also a t.v.
12:18 pm
man and this is a t.v. event so we already saw some of those pictures very slick pictures very slick background very slick production values so while donald trump does thrive on that live experience the t.v. aspects very good as well and remember this kind of vent virtual pre-planned means it's much more controlled he stays on script less chance of him saying something that might get him into trouble. from the peep from from voters who didn't quote thank you very much for this analysis. we're going to india where the least 2 people died and many more were injured when an apartment block collapsed in the hard south of mumbai some 60 people have been pulled from the wreckage of the 5 story building but dozens are believed to be trapped it's not clear what caused the collapse it's. can you hear me a rescue worker beckons for survivors to answer his call. under the glare of floodlights for signs of life amid the mountain of rubble one eyewitness said the
