- President Donald Trump is to speak on all four nights of next week's Republican National Convention, reported The New York Times on Saturday.
- Usually, the party's presidential candidate only speaks on the last night, to accept the party's nomination.
- The president, who has a background in reality TV, plans a spectacular first-ever virtual RNC that he hopes will eclipse last week's Democratic convention.
- The party's list of key speakers is dominated by Trump family members, with the president's wife and three of his children to address the conference, reported Fox News.
President Donald Trump will speak on all four nights of next week's Republican National Convention, breaking with the longstanding tradition limiting the party's presidential candidate to one big acceptance speech on the last night of the event, The New York Times reported.
Trump will speak at the RNC's first-ever virtual event every night in a prime-time 10pm slot, reported the Times. The party plans are being coordinated by two former Apprentice producers who hope to eclipse the DNC's first virtual convention last week. Trump was the show's host for the first fourteen seasons, and the show's popularity gave him a national profile and contributed to his rise to the presidency.
According to Politico, Trump believes that last week's DNC event was too "gloomy," and wants a more upbeat tone for the GOP conference.
Some of the conference events, reportedly including the president's acceptance speech, will be hosted at the White House, which is not traditionally used by presidents for campaign events. It's a move that has been denounced by critics as unethical.

I'm deciding whether I want to speak at the convention. I think i have a pretty good chance of my offer being accepted since they are having a difficult time finding people willing to speak.
Are you saying he doesn't have enough sycophants to fill the time slots? I find that hard to believe, lol!
Seriously though, I wish the Libertarian Party could get all this free press to present their candidate Jo Jorgensen.
One thing is certain, Nikki Haley is not doing her political career any favors but I guess she realizes that she no longer is the sole representative to those with ties to India.
Gary Johnson had relatively immense publicity in 2016 and still couldnt crack 5% in the vote. People like the idea of libertarianism in theory, in practice they hate it as a government choice.
I think everyone is more worried that they will be "wasting" their vote going Third Party.
IDK...she still seems to be holding on in Approval Ratings better than most other current and former Politicos. She is still pretty popular and it wouldn't surprise me to see her run for President in '28. 2024 would be too soon for any real chance of winning--unless Biden does manage to oust Trump this year, then a 2024 hot might be a goo idea.
I’d like to see Kid Rock do Yo-Da-Lin in the valley. It’s my favorite Kid Rock song.
I'm personally waiting to see how Melania plagiarizes Michelle's DNC speech.
I recommend you don't hold your breath on that
Just saying......it seems to be a pattern with her, speeches, garden. I'm hoping she'll have another successful break out campaign like her "Be Best". That seems to have gotten a lot of traction. lol
Trump's 2016 convention was widely panned as being ridiculous, with D-list celebrities like Scott Baio, and blowhard personalities like the head of UFC , Dana White. We can expect more of the same tomorrow.
I wonder if he'll have a walk on special guest representative from qanon.
I wouldnt doubt it
I'm sure there will be lots of special guests in attendance.
And he won
Half the convention speakers are Trumps, literally.
