Three generations of Donald Trump's family surrounded him on stage after he accepted the Republican nomination during a marathon speech recounting the horrifying moment he was shot by a would-be assassin.
Melania Trump came up behind her husband - still with a bandage on his ear - on stage then got a kiss on the cheek at the end of a historic night just days after he was inches of losing his life.
The 77-year-old's 93-minute speech, a record in modern history, started by recounting the moment where he was within a 'quarter of an inch' of being killed and reliving the amount of blood that spilled on his face.

I was wondering where Baron was. Typical DM, " The nominee then rambled..."

Two things:
1) I noticed Vanessa, Jr’s former wife, was in the box Wednesday night when Kai spoke. But I believe she was also onstage last night when everyone went up after the speech. She was standing on the far end. At one point, PDJT looked over and saw her and whispered to Melania, and the two of them circled over to greet her.
Class
2) I wonder if Barron’s absence has anything to do with finding 6’10+” bodyguards for him.

Very astute, #2. Barron’s height may very well have been a factor. The DM got in their digs about Trump rambling and delegates falling asleep but never mind. President Trump stood for over 90 minutes and spoke strongly, clearly and articulately 5 days after he was shot in an assassination attempt and at the age of 77. I’m sure every delegate and every Republican is proud to support such a man.

Melania just gets more beautiful as the years go by.
I was not able to wear heels like that at her age....well at any age.

RE #4:
I also tried wearing a pair of heels like that in high school. For one day! When I got home and took them off, I had to walk around the house on tiptoe until the muscles on my feet unclenched!! I never wore them again!!

I also saw PDT and Melania go to greet Vaneesa on stage. I also saw President Trump move past Kimberly Guilfoyle without saying hello to her on stage the first night. And Kimberly did try to get his attention. It may have been by accident but I wonder how PDT really feels about Don Jr. and Kimberly.

93 minutes speech? Are you sure about that time? Trump started at about 10pm est. and I finally turned off the tv at about 11:50pm est. and Trump was still speaking. I feel entire speech could have been an hour less and he still could have said everything he wanted to say and more.

#6 my opinion of course. I always thought Vanessa got a divorce because she couldn't take to be in the political arena being a mother of 5 young children. It looks like they are all in good terms. I never liked the idea of Kimberly over there, always trying to be up front. Remember she was married to Gavin Newsome (well, we all make mistakes). She is now the plastic girlfriend. Couldn't help but noticing the amount of plastic surgery she deformed her face with, let alone the long lady Godiva hair not suitable any more for a woman her age. I hope Don Jr. comes to his senses. At least he is not marrying her.

Barron WAS there!
He was standing behind Kimberly Guilfoyle - - but her eye shadow and mascara obscured him.

#6, 9 et al:
I googled KG last night (“plastic surgery”) and was stunned by the articles re her and her overall look: including surgery, makeup, and inappropriate dress.
I remember when she was on The Five, Fox ensured she was on the end so she could cross her legs and swing them.
Her dress and overall demeanor screams “gold digger.” (She could take a cue from the other Trump women.)

When Melania, President Trump, his children and their spouses, and his grandchildren got on the stage at the end of the RNC convention, I thought "what a beautiful family." All good looking, smart and with respectful behavior, they will represent the US very nicely!
