Eric Trump Delivers Powerful RNC Speech in Support of His Father: “Our Country Misses You”
The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee has been packed with Trump supporters eager to rally behind their favorite family. Lara Trump, daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump, took the stage on Tuesday evening to share her thoughts. On Wednesday, Don Jr. grabbed the mic, but it was his 17-year-old daughter, Kai, who stole the show.
And finally, on Thursday night, it was Eric Trump’s turn to address the crowd before his father’s much-anticipated speech. But before Eric took the stage, Franklin Graham delivered moving remarks and led a prayer. It was a heartfelt moment, setting the stage for Eric’s fiery and passionate speech.
Eric began by reflecting on the moment his father made the decision to run for president eight years ago. It was a decision that would change their lives forever. As Eric described it, his father answered the call to serve the nation and fight for the soul of America. It was a decision motivated by deep concern for the future of the country.
Of course, with such a decision came the inevitable vicious attacks. Eric humorously downplayed the warnings his family received, saying it was a serious understatement. But through it all, he praised his father’s unwavering courage and determination, both in public and in private conversations with the family.
