Here's who you can expect to take the stage Wednesday as RNC 2024 enters its back half of events in a day focused on foreign policy, dubbed "Make America Strong Once Again."
While former U.S. president Donald Trump isn't expected to speak until the convention's closing on Thursday, members of America's prospective first and second families are set to voice their support for the Republican ticket in advance of Trump's return to the spotlight.
Vance is scheduled to close out the night, his most prominent appearance since Trump announced him as his pick for the Republican vice-presidential nomination. Once a notorious critic of Trump, Vance has hewed closely to the former president in the years since the 2016 election and his own political ascension with a 2022 senate win.
Vance's wife and a lawyer who clerked for two U.S. Supreme Court justices, Usha Chilukuri Vance, will speak immediately before the newly crowned nominee.
Donald Trump Jr., the president's eldest son and executive vice president of the Trump Organization, will speak late in the day, joining his teenaged daughter Kai Trump, who will have an additional speaker's slot of her own.
Finally, recognizable names from the former Trump Administration are among the listed speakers, including then-counsellor to the president Kellyanne Conway and Ric Grenell, former acting director of national intelligence.
