Trump appears with bandaged ear at Republican convention

 Former U.S. President Donald Trump made a triumphant entrance during the first night of the Republican National Convention on Monday, receiving a raucous ovation two days after a would-be assassin's bullet grazed his right ear, Reuters reports.Trump walked into the Fiserv Forum in downtown Milwaukee with a thick bandage over the ear as the crowd chanted "Fight! Fight! Fight" and pumped their fists, a reference to his reaction in the moments after he was wounded, the report adds.According to Reuters, the former president mouthed the words "Thank you" and settled into a box with some of his children and U.S. Senator J.D. Vance, Trump's choice for running mate announced earlier in the day.Trump is due to formally accept the party's nomination in a prime-time speech on July 18 and will face Democratic President Joe Biden in the Nov. 5 election.The four-day convention began less than 48 hours after a gunman opened fire at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, killing one supporter, injuring two others. The gunman was shot dead and his motive remains unclear.Following the shooting, Trump said he was revising his acceptance speech to emphasize national unity, rather than highlight his differences with Biden.
