1:37Now PlayingProfessional entertainer and wrestler Hulk Hogan hailed fans of former President Donald Trump as “Trumpites” on the final night of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, yelled to the audience, “You better get ready, because when Donald J. Trump becomes the president of the United States, all the real Americans are going to be nicknamed Trumpites. Because all the Trumpites are going to be running wild for four years.”
“So with the power of Donald J. Trump, and all the Trumpites running wild, America is going to get back on track, and like Donald J. Trump said, America is going to be great again,” Hogan said. He later took his blazer off and ripped his tank top in two, revealing a campaign shirt for Trump and vice presidential running mate, Sen. JD Vance.
Thursday night’s convention program focused on making “America great once again,” featuring Trump’s first speech as party nominee.
Throughout the week, Republican elected officials, party leaders, celebrities and voters have taken the stage to speak in support of Trump and Vance. They also adopted a party platform. Trump’s Thursday night address will be his first formal public remarks since an assassination attempt against him last weekend at a rally in Pennsylvania.
