This week, I had the honor of attending the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Here is a recap of the week’s extraordinary events.

Day 1: We Have a Nominee

On Monday afternoon, Trump announced his Vice President, and news of his pick quickly filled the stadium where the voting was taking place. Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio was chosen as the rightful pick, putting forward a new visionary for American politics. Americans need another Trump presidency to stem the tide of liberalism that the Biden Administration represents, and J.D. Vance is a person who will fight for working class Americans who have not had their voices heard for the last four years. You can read our full press release on soon-to-be Vice President Vance here:

The New York delegation, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, and Rep. Mike Lawler were also there to represent conservative politics. Rep. Stefanik had the honor of declaring all of New York’s 91 delegates had voted for President Trump. During the final speech of the evening, Senator Vance, Rep. Lawler and Rep. Malliotakis were hailed as heroes by Teamsters Union President, Sean O’Brien, saying that they are “elected officials who truly care about working people.”

Finally, at the end of the night, Donald Trump made his triumphant return after Saturday’s assassination attempt. With the crowds chanting his name and telling him to fight on, Trump seemed grateful, both for the love his supporters give him and his new lease on life.

Days 2 & 3: Make America Safe and Strong Again

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R/C-NY) took to the stage on day two to acknowledge that this is the most important election of our lifetime and “our constitution and the soul of our very nation are on the ballot.” Gov. Ron DeSantis, put forward the Trump agenda, calling for common sense changes to protect the border, the economy, and Americans as a whole. Nikki Haley called for unity, saying that she may not agree with everything Trump stands for or wants to do, but she agrees more often than she disagrees, and therefore, “for the sake of our nation, we have to go with Donald Trump.” You can view our full press release on night two here:

The NYS Conservative Party was thrilled that New York’s very own Lee Zeldin, had a prime-time speaking spot on night three of the convention. After almost unseating Governor Kathy Hochul in a deep blue state, Lee’s message echoed across the Country. He brought his enthusiasm to Milwaukee and knocked it out of the park. To be frank, I can’t think of another political leader with a brighter future than Lee. You can read our full press release on night three here.

Finally, at the end of night three, we heard from the next Vice President, J.D. Vance. First, Vance introduced himself to the country. Many people outside of Ohio had no idea who this freshman senator was; on Wednesday, that changed. Vance, whose life story truly symbolizes the American dream, is the perfect person to represent America. Strategically, Vance revealed what he brought to the campaign: the Midwest. Many times throughout his speech he mentioned Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin. These are must-win states for the Trump campaign, and with an Ohioan on the ticket, the campaign has an extra advantage on Biden.

Day 4: Make America Great Once Again

Today, President Trump took to the stage in his highly anticipated speech. His 92-minute speech set the record for the longest nomination speech, during which he portrayed confidence, strength, and hope for the future. The President started by recalling the tragic events that happened last weekend and brought out the uniform of Corey Comperatore, asking for a moment of silence for his memory. The President made a pledge to the nation. He will end inflation, bring down interest rates, and lower energy costs. He will never stop fighting for us, repeating that this movement is not about him, but about the American people. When Trump returns to the White House in January, America will come first once again.

The last four days have been an experience I will never forget, never before have Conservatives and Republicans ever been so united behind a presidential candidate. This November we make the choice between America First and America Last. Today we stand behind, and fully endorse the next President and Vice President of the United States of America: Donald J. Trump and J.D. Vance. You can read our full press release on night four here.

Help Trump and the Conservative Party

As election day draws near, we see time and time again that liberal policies are failing, and New Yorkers are taking notice. We are working to raise money for our campaign operations; help the Conservative Party fund its candidates for President, Congress, State Legislature, and local offices by supporting our efforts. Early money in a campaign is the most important funding in a campaign cycle. By working together, we can create a solid campaign budget for November’s elections. Your support would be greatly appreciated. You can donate by following this link here. If you would like to support us by mail, please make checks out to NYS Conservative Party, 486 78^th St. Brooklyn, NY 11209.

“The proposed Board of Elections wording is a satisfactory compromise which allows both sides to move forward, making important points relative to their positions. The New York State Conservative Party position on this amendment is clear — this is a vague, anything-goes proposal that will lead to massive confusion and countless Constitutional challenges on issues including age, female sports, parental rights, and noncitizen voting . We strongly oppose Prop One, but accept the Board of Elections’ compromise ballot language.”

New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar, July 24, 2024

Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE)

On Wednesday, the House of Representatives passed the crucial SAVE Act, a significant step towards upholding the integrity of our elections and partially addressing the ongoing migrant crisis exacerbated by President Biden, Governor Hochul, and the Democratic Party. Despite opposition from 198 Democrats, the bill received unanimous support from the New York congressional delegation, reflecting their commitment to securing our borders and ensuring fair elections. We extend our thanks to the New York representatives for their support and dedication to safeguarding the interests of their constituents and the nation as a whole. You can read our full press release on the SAVE Act here.

Biden’s Leadership Crisis

Yesterday, President Biden’s highly anticipated “big boy” one-hour press conference, aimed at demonstrating his fitness for another term, was marred by numerous gaffes, causing more internal mayhem for Democrats. Notably, he mistakenly referred to former President Trump as his Vice President, confusing him with Kamala Harris. At the NATO summit, Biden further embarrassed himself by addressing the President of Ukraine as “Putin” in front of global leaders.

These blunders are not just political missteps; they underscore serious concerns about Biden’s mental acuity and his ability to handle the responsibilities of the presidency. This is not a partisan issue; the president’s compromised mental state poses a significant national security risk, and his continued leadership is increasingly untenable. This problem is not going away for Biden, with calls from prominent supporters, donors, and legislators calling on him to drop out of the race. Shockingly, the media even seems to be turning on Biden as well. With the most liberal-leaning networks finally coming to the conclusion that Biden is unwell; we expect a lot more “bombshell” reports to arise come November.

Preview Of GOP National Convention

The 2024 Republican National Convention will take place from Monday, July 15th to Thursday, July 18th in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The city is set to welcome delegates, party leaders, and supporters from across the country for this event in the presidential election cycle. Each day will feature a combination of policy discussions, strategy meetings, and keynote addresses. The culmination of the event will be the formal nomination of the Republican candidate for President of the United States. Delegates from all states and territories will gather to cast their votes.

The convention will feature a lineup of prominent speakers, including party leaders, influential politicians, and rising stars within the Republican Party. I was especially happy to see Governor Ron Desantis announced as one of the speakers. The united effort to elect Donald Trump as our next President couldn’t be more enthusiastic and the momentum is on our side. In accordance with election law, the New York State Conservative Party is also required to hold its own Convention, which will take place in August. We look forward to nominating our endorsed candidate, Donald J. Trump, as the official Conservative Party candidate in NYS that will appear on line “C” in November. More information will follow.
