Hey there.
It's the NPR Politics podcast.
I'm Asma Khalid.
I cover the White House.
And I'm with our fabulous podcast producer, Casey Morell.
And we're kicking off today's podcast a little differently.
We're here right now on the third day of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
And we wanted to get a sense of why people are here at this convention, what excites them about Donald Trump being the republican presidential nominee?
And in particular, on the night when Ohio state senator JD Vance is set to speak, what they think about the vice presidential pick for the republican ticket.
So let's go talk to some folks.
Joshua Bryant, I am 46 years old from northwest Arkansas.
I'm currently in the Arkansas Senate.
I just thought it was an opportunity to come see the events and how the RNC works.
As I want to further advance myself and become more involved in politics, I think the parties are further divided, and you're able to see more of a contrast between the directions that each party is going.
