Speaking as he prepared to board a flight to the upcoming Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he is expected to be confirmed as the party’s candidate for president, Mr Trump said he now had a “chance to bring the country together”.
He said his speech would now be completely different instead of the “humdinger” aimed mostly at current President Joe Biden’s policies he had previously planned.
“Had [Saturday’s attack] not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches.
“Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now. It is a chance to bring the country together.”
I think it’s reasonably confirmed.

Heaping on: He registered to vote as a Republican in the ‘22 midterm. A reason being given for a Democrat to register as Republicans is said to be to spoil primaries, but he did not vote in this year’s primary, so I think that line of thought is less likely.
In the article you shared. “Campaign finance records show that in January 2021, as a 17-year-old, Crooks gave $15 to the Progressive Turnout Project, a pro-Democrat political action committee, Axios reported. However, records show that he later registered as a Republican and voted in the 2022 midterm elections.”
Why did he give money to Progressive Turnout Project?
I don’t know man. It’s obviously not black and white.
Honestly, who knows?
The news is saying that his voter registration was weeks after he turned 18. His peers have repeatedly said they believe he was a conservative, and he registered republican.
I would more trust his voter registration (which held constant for 2 years) and the words others say about patterns of actions from him than a one-time donation to a PAC.
