WILL THE CALL FOR UNITY CONTINUE?
After the assassination attempt, there were powerful calls for unity and healing in the US, including from House Speaker Mike Johnson and in Biden’s Oval Office address.
Trump also said he was revising his acceptance speech to emphasise national unity, rather than highlight his differences with Biden.
Trump is due to formally accept the party's nomination in a prime-time speech on Thursday.
However the spirit of unity is not likely to continue, said Allen. He noted that even while such messages were coming out, some – notably Vance – were amplifying the partisan division.
Vance had said that the attempted assassination was the result of democratic messaging.
Despite Trump saying he will emphasise national unity, there is unlikely to be a message on cooling the temperature or coming together as a country, said Howell. He added that politically speaking, it has been an “extraordinarily favourable couple of weeks” for Trump.
“This is for him a moment of ascendance, and he's going to do everything he can to make the most of it,” he said.
Describing Trump as a “master politician”, Allen said it would be beneficial for Trump to highlight that he is responding to the attack.
“Certainly, his address will focus heavily on the events of this weekend because they do paint a picture of him now as this Lazarus-like candidate, as well as draw a pretty powerful distinction to President Biden,” he added.
