YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Donald Trump was received at the Republican National Congress like a conquering messiah, says Andrew Marr.

"There are even reports of people collecting tiny little samples of his blood and selling it as a healing balm"

After the shooting on Saturday which killed one bystander and injured two more, the former US president and now republican presidential candidate "has realised that this has taken him to a new place."

Andrew Marr says the appointment of JD Vance as Trump's VP running mate "squashes any thought that there is somehow a more consensual, gentler Donald Trump in the wings."
