Donald Trump on Thursday vowed to “put America first” and restore “law and order” in a country rocked by shootings and attacks as he appealed to the Americans to elect him to the White House while formally accepting the Republican nomination as the Presidential candidate at the Republican Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.
The 70-year-old real estate tycoon called himself the “law and order candidate” as he vowed to defeat ISIS and reiterated his resolve to build the wall along the Mexico border, stressing that immigration from countries that have compromised on terrorism should be be immediately suspended.
While accepting the nomination “humbly and gratefully”, Trump promised to defeat ISIS and Islamic terrorism, but toned down his previous proposal of a complete ban on entry of Muslims in the country.
