Trump makes first public appearance since assassination attempt
CBSN
Washington — Former President Donald Trump arrived Monday night at the Republican National Convention, making his first public appearance since he survived an assassination attempt two days earlier.
Trump was rushed off stage Saturday at a rally in Pennsylvania after a gunman opened fire, brazing the former president's right ear, killing one attendee and critically injuring two others.
Trump told ABC News earlier Monday that his ear is recovering and that the assassination attempt has had "an impact" on him. He said he hopes the bandage would be off his ear by the time he formally accepts the nomination in a speech Thursday night.
