A wild week at the RNC hit a crescendo last night as Donald Trump strode onto the convention stage to accept the GOP presidential nomination for the third straight time. The former president promised a different tone, bookending what was effectively a classic Trump rally speech, disjointed and divisive but with an appeal to unity.

Today's show again comes to you from Milwaukee, where Donald Trump tonight will accept his party's nomination for the third time in a row. In normal times, this would obviously be our lead here today on Inside Politics, but these are anything but normal times.

First: Tonight in Milwaukee, JD Vance, Donald Trump's VP pick, will introduce himself to both the nation and the world. Vance is expected to focus heavily on his personal story, rising up from a poor family that struggled with addiction in rural Ohio to becoming a graduate of Yale law school, a marine, a venture capitalist, a best-selling author, and now a United States senator. 

We also have new reporting about a very tense call between President Biden and a group of centrist House Democrats on Saturday during which Biden told one lawmaker to "cut that crap out" after the congressman told the president that voters are losing confidence in him.

Dana and the gang are at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where Donald Trump was given a hero's welcome by his most ardent supporters just two days after surviving an assassination attempt. While the atmosphere in the hall was electric, the former president appeared subdued and even emotional as he stood with his new running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. Joining Dana are CNN's Audie Cornish and Kristen Holmes, Semafor's David Weigel, and Astead Herndon of the New York Times.

Former President Donald Trump responds this morning to the attempt on his life at his rally in Pennsylvania yesterday evening. 

Overnight, the FBI identified the suspect. They are still investigating the motive. The big question is, how could this have happened? Why did this happen? And what does it mean for an already hugely consequential campaign?
