Trump accepts GOP nomination: 'I am your voice'

Trump accepts GOP nomination: 'I am your voice'

Donald Trump cast himself Thursday night as the protector of ordinary Americans, and promised to shield them from terrorism and self-serving elites who run the government corruptly in defiance of the public good. Accepting the Republican presidential nomination, Trump vowed: "To every parent who dreams for their child, and every child who dreams for their future, I say these words to you tonight: I'm with you, and I will fight for you, and I will win for you." He spoke directly to "the forgotten men and women of our country," saying to rousing applause, "I am your voice."

Ivanka Trump hails her father as 'the people's nominee'

Ivanka Trump attempted to soften the image of her father Donald Trump while introducing him Thursday night, lauding him as the "people's nominee" before Trump was set to accept the Republican presidential nomination. "In his own way and through his own sheer force of will, he sacrificed greatly to enter the political arena as an outsider and prevailed against a field of 16 very talented competitors," Trump said in her opening. "For more than a year, Donald Trump has been the people's champion. And tonight, he is the people's nominee."

The Republican Party's crisis of conscience

"If you love our country, and if you love you children the way that I know that you do, stand, and speak, and vote your conscience," Ted Cruz said Wednesday night. That word, "conscience," triggered the boos. "Vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution." Boos spread across the floor and into the stands. It was fitting that "conscience" would be the trigger word for those who have attached themselves to "Mr. Trump."
