    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Despite Donald Trump’s dramatic appearance days after an assassination attempt, the opening night of the Republican National Convention drew in five million fewer viewers than the first night of the convention back in 2016 – when he became the party’s presidential candidate for the first time.

    Fox News had the highest ratings for its RNC coverage, with 6.9 million viewers as of 10pm on Monday.

    On MSNBC on Tuesday, host Lawrence O’Donnell waded in on the numbers, saying “this is a very low-rated convention.”

    Trump unveiled JD Vance as his vice presidential pick in a Truth Social post on Monday, before making his first public appearance since surviving the shooting at his rally in Pennsylvania at the weekend.

    On Tuesday, he returned to the RNC to watch two old rivals, Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, take to the stage to endorse him in the election.

    Now, Vance is set to take to the stage on Wednesday for his first major address since he was tapped to be Trump’s new running mate.
