Former President Trump's speech tonight will not use the word 'Biden' once: Sources
Highly placed sources told Fox News' Bret Baier that the former president's highly anticipated speech tonight in Milwaukee will run for over an hour and will avoid mentioning "Biden" entirely.
Several times Trump will refer to the "current administration" or the "current leadership," but does not reference Biden's name, according to the sources.
Sources say the speech will "lay out the case for the ticket" and several parts will focus on unity in the wake of Saturday's assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.
"We don't know who the nominee will be at this point," a source said, referring to questions within the Democratic Party about whether President Biden should be pushed to step down from running for re-election amid concerns over his mental and physical capacity to campaign and govern.
Former President Trump is set to officially accept the Republican Party's nomination for president Thursday night, joined on stage by several family members, including his wife, former first lady Melania Trump.
After narrowly surviving Saturday's assassination attempt, Trump indicated earlier in the week that he had scrapped a 20-page speech he originally planned to deliver, opting instead for a different message of unity on the RNC's final night.
