SUMMARY: This week’s episode of Mississippi Insight focuses on the recent Republican National Convention, where Donald Trump secured his nomination for president and announced JD Vance as his vice-presidential pick. Analysts Austin Barber and Richard Lake discuss the GOP’s newfound unity compared to previous elections and assess President Biden’s weak position amid calls for his potential replacement. Governor Tate Reeves shares his support for displaying the Ten Commandments in schools, echoing Louisiana’s recent legislation. The conversation touches on the implications of Trump’s assassination attempt and speculates on the upcoming election dynamics and the Democratic Party’s state amidst Biden’s challenges.
GOP strategist Austin Barbour and 12 News Senior Political Correspondent Richard Lake join host Byron Brown in recapping the assassination attempt against former Pres. Donald Trump, his formal nomination at the RNC, and his choice of J.D. Vance as the Republican vice presidential nominee. Produced by Tom Wright.
