The GOP kicks off the Republican National Convention today in Milwaukee, days after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. CNBC’s Eamon Javers reports on the security at the RNC and the latest information on the 20-year-old gunman. Republican Pennsylvania Senate Candidate David McCormick was in the front row of the Butler, PA campaign rally; he recounts the confused moments of the shooting and highlights America’s polarized political rhetoric as a factor in the violence. On both sides of the aisle, lawmakers are calling for civility and peace in a highly charged political environment. After President Biden’s Oval Office address, Biden Campaign co-chair Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) condemns violence and hostile speech.
