14:03Now PlayingFive days after surviving an assassination attempt, former President Trump pleaded for national unity as he formally accepted the GOP presidential nomination during the culminating moment of the 2024 Republican National Convention.
"I am running to be president for all of America, not half of America, because there is no victory in winning for half of America," Trump emphasized as he addressed the thousands of delegates, party officials and activists packed into Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum and to the national audience of Americans watching the convention from home.
"The discord and division in our society must be healed. As Americans, we are bound together by a single fate and a shared destiny. We rise together. Or we fall apart," the former president noted.
The shooting, at Trump's rally Saturday in western Pennsylvania where one spectator was killed, along with the gunman, instantly impacted the tone and message of the convention, and as Trump has acknowledged, altered his convention address.

"There was blood pouring everywhere, and yet, in a certain way, I felt very safe, because I had God on my side," Trump said. "The amazing thing is that prior to the shot, if I had not moved my head at the very last instant, the assassin’s bullet would have perfectly hit its mark, and I would not be with you tonight."
"I am not supposed to be here tonight. I stand before you in this arena only by the grace of almighty God. Many people say it was a providential moment," Trump said.
But the crowd chanted: "Yes you are! Yes you are!"
And he acknowledged that "none of us knows God’s plan, or where life’s adventure will take us. But if the events of last Saturday make anything clear, it is that every single moment we have on earth is a gift from God. We have to make the most of every day for the people and country we love."
