And of course we did hear from donald trump brief toll night on thursday hes set to deliver his speech accepting the nomination. Not all the delegates at the convention are on board with donald trump. Take listen. Usa more than a few delegates protesting on the ren in a floor. They wanted is a state by state roll call on the rules package for the convention. Hoping to expose divisions within the Republican Party. But the majority of the delegates passed the rules doing a voice vote over the shouting of the anti Trump Delegates. Hundreds of anti trump protesters filled the streets of downtown cleveland at the start of the Republican National convention. Demonstrators accused the Presumptive Republican nominee of all things evil from racism to sexism. The list goes on. The citys police chief said the officers were outfitted to protect themselves that did not wear riot gear. Most locals seemed to take the rallies in stride. Going to be lot of people with a lot of opinions. No shortage of that this week. No. I think thats really i try to tell my children thats what this country is about. Standing that listening to someone saying something that makes your blood boil but they have a right to say it. 5500 Law Enforcement officers are working the rnc after all the action today who knows what day two of the convention bring. Tomorrows theme i is make amera work again. Notable new jersey governor chris cress tee, Senate Majority leader mitch mcdonnell, House Speaker paul rain. Ben carson and donald trump, jr. A lot of talk from speakers tonight about the democrats presumptive nominee Hillary Clinton and today she spoke to the naacp speaking at the groups annual convention in cincinnati about the recent violence nationwide. She said the madness needs to stop. It follows the rash of deadly violence aimed at loom. She vowed to we have difficult painful search work ahead of us to repair the bonds between our police and our communities and between and among each other. Donald trump was invited to speak to the group but he declined the invitation. Next week all eyes will be on the philadelphia of course for the democrats National Convention. Local and federal officials are doing all they can to make sure the dnc is a safe convention. Fox 29s Dave Schratwieser reports chemical detectors are now in place and secret service has sealed sewers and light poles. New surveillance cameras will ease keep could close eye on the wells fargo sent. Philadelphias top cop says his officers are ready to protect dignitaries, deal with massive protests and assure the publics safety. The only thing that i ask that people are peaceful and that they respect everyone else. The city will ban trucks heavier than 5 tons from i95 and although south philadelphians have been parking on the median of brought street for generations, well, guess what, folks . You cant do it next week. Back to cleveland now where bruce gordon is tonight. Bruce, quite an opening day again with milania trump leading the main event. How was the response . Reporter i thought the response was very positive. Most folks we talk to here even republican admitted to me before the speech didnt know a whole lot about milania trump they knew she was beautiful woman an accomplished businessperson. Not whole lot more than that. She delivered the speech well tonight, about 20 minute addre address, all the kinds of things you could expect someone to say about their spouse much as many folks have talk about republicans trump in particular has a real problem with women voters. Does this help tonight . Well, time will tell. But the speech was well delivered and she was very well received tonight. Bruce, weve been watching protest. Done a lot of reports on the security. So how tense did things get today . Reporter well i think there was a fair amount of tension out there but i is have to say both sides behaved pretty well. If thats the right term for it. The protesters were largely peaceful. There was some vitter al. Bile spilled out there on the street but no blood we can tell. Police seemed like they have things in control. We learned from the police chief calvin wl jumps here in cleveland they are newly purchasing have recently purchased bicycles for the use of crowd control they seemed to pretty well with them. The bicycles cep the protesters in the street, off the sidewalks, away from buildings. They were able to use those bicycles assort of moveable barriers. They hang on to the bike, walk forward slowly, ordering folks to move back. That seemed to work pretty well. Fall all, it was a successful rally in the sense that folks got to make their voices heard without any real violence in terms of Property Damage or injuries. So that was some good news. You mentioned before, lucy, about the unity or lack thereof. Yeah. We saw it on the floor this morning. We saw donald trump himself and of course his top cam paper chief paul man any forward doing bigtime criticism of john kasich the very popular ohio governor. Of course, former candidate in this race. That did not go over real well with some of the hormion folks here. They did not think that was a very president ial very diplomatic thing to do when unity is the key. You probably know a lot of folk not here at this particular convention. Oh yeah. The last two candidates obviously the last two president s both the bushes. Theyre not here. And so a hole lost folks not here. Some of them coming in for specific criticism but the message of unity clearly hasnt sung in for everybody at least not yet. John mccain also not there, of course. Donald trump had some harsh words for him i think a year ago today. Bruce, overall we saw bedlam there on the convention floor. Whats the climate like now . Do they tamp down those anti trump folks and very trump folks . Reporter yeah, its not clear were hearing words tonight that they are not giving up the ghost so to speak the never trump votes. But it is probably fair to say it is a relatively small minority of the overall group. We often hear from folks theres a thousand of us on one side of the issue and 150 on the other side make a lot of noise you and the media cover it out of proportion tots importance. That maybe the case here. But clearly when you look at that video this afternoon and you look at the fee, the folks up on the stage trying to keep the cats coralled as we like to say, the look on the one guys face was very clear. How did i lose the room . That was a look of concern. That this is not the optics they wander and sure enough, at least many of the early headlines were not about milania trump. Not about unity. They were about chaos on the convention floor. Thats not message you want basically at these convention lucy as you know youve got four nights to build a narrative each day you want to win that story line and its not so clear that the Republican Party and donald trump won today not as big as they would have wanted. Donald was saying he wanted to produce this big time as we might all recall. Bruce gordon thank you very much live in cleveland tonight. It will be a big day tomorrow. Get off to bed. Hell be reporting all week. Thank you very much. Rnc is in full swing. Were just one week from the d dnc. How businesses are gearing up for all the excitement.

He shared his story in a book which became the movie earlier tonight marcus lou trill took the stage at the convention and talked about his time traveling the country and the importance of taking care of our nations veterans. Because i was willing to completely open up my life and speak about the worst week of it, i was blessed with meeting and seeing the greatest people america had to offer.

Mitt romney was zero and he ran his campaign was run miserable until ohio. I dont know how about so smart in business could be so bad at running a campaign. You sound like trump. Well, thats where we are right now. And thats our is it a starting point. Guess what . Romney came pretty darn close. What were going to be doing with donald trump, all of the above.

Many of us will always remember him as charles in charge before that cha chi op happy days. Scott baio dipped his toe into political waters. Baio has been vocal trump supporter for while now he would be the type of president this country needs. Trump asked him to speak tonight and when baio took the stage at the rnc he took a moment to speak directly to young people. America is an easy place to get to. But for you first time voters its important for you to know wait means to be an american. It doesnt mean getting free stuff. applause .
