Republican National Convention Co-Chair Dave Bossie: Event All About Forgotten Men and WomenHannah Knudsen 13 Jul 2024
The upcoming Republican National Convention is all about the forgotten men and women of America, highlighting them and their stories, Dave Bossie, the co-chair of the convention and the president of Citizens United, said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, days ahead of the big event.
Bossie, who also served as deputy campaign manager for former President Donald Trump in 2016, previewed the programming of the upcoming convention, which is taking place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and is actually the first in-person Republican National Committee convention to take place in eight years. However, this convention will be different, as it will focus more on the American people.
“We are trying to make it big and powerful and make it memorable … but instead of, historically speaking, politicians coming out and speaking — one after the other, usually in a four-night convention, there’s usually about 40 or 50 speakers — this year, we’re going to have between 100 and 120 speakers, and that’s because we have Americans speaking to the American people, meaning your average American,” Bossie said.
One of the speakers, for example, is a mother whose daughter died from a fentanyl overdose. Another speaker is a father who lost his son to MS-13 Gang violence.
“We have somebody whose property has been just destroyed by illegal immigrants. We have one American after another telling their stories to the American people and how impactful these different policies that Joe Biden has foisted on the American people have destroyed their lives,” Bossie said, adding that the convention has veterans, disabled veterans, and parents who will speak about their experiences, as well.
