The Republican National Convention is underway in Milwaukee.
The city of beer and sausage was supposed to host the Democratic convention four years ago, but the in-person gathering was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This time, the event comes shortly after Saturday's assassination attempt on Donald Trump, who, undeterred, arrived to formally claim the Republican Party's nomination for president.
