Donald Trump swells with emotion as crowd chants 'fight!' at RNC

A visibly emotional Donald Trump has walked out to raucous applause and chants of "USA" and "fight" during the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

It is the former president's first public appearance since Saturday's assassination attempt.

Takes a bullet and still walks off stage better than Biden. Amazing.

He kinda looks like he's on verge of tears but in a happy/grateful way

Thank you Skynews for being more patriotic than of own citizens!

You can tell the attempt on his life changed him. He has a completely new aura surrounding him. He looks so grateful to be alive.

[jeffystevens]

Never in my life have i seen a crowd so eager to chant. They seriously broke into 4 or 5 USA chants alone during his speach tonight

[Groovingonem]

That attempt on his life changed him. You can see it in his face.

I really think this is the most humbling experience of his life. His body language is different and his expression is subdued, he never looks that way.

Don’t care what you think about this man. He is a straight up leader. The strength and courage of this man to stand there after everything he has been through.

President Trump looked like he was on the verge of tears a few times - the support shown for him is a beautiful thing to see!

[CobraChickenRacing]

He seems different, as if his demeanor has softened. Not weakened, but perhaps he has a new perspective. God please protect this man.

This gives me hope for all American Citizens let’s go Trump!!

Sky news has been covering this better than any American news station

[weston.]

His son was welling up too. It doesn’t matter what they tell you, Trump loves this country and he loves his supporters.

[janetpennanen]

I think he has been changing for a while now. He talks about God and prayer and we are praying for him. The man is quite a fighter and is still standing after all of what he has been through, including an attempt on his life! If he can fight like that, I want him to fight for our country! He's not backing down and that is the kind of President we need!

[susanreas]

He looks so humble and all that has happened to him will only strengthen his decision making as he leads our Country.

And we swelled with emotions when he told us fight, fight, fight
