The race was upended on Saturday when Trump was shot in the ear at a rally in Pennsylvania by a 20-year-old gunman whose motive remains unknown.
In the wake of his near-death experience, Trump said he is revising his acceptance speech to emphasise national unity, rather than highlight his differences with Biden.
“This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together. The speech will be a lot different, a lot different than it would’ve been two days ago,” Trump told the Washington Examiner.
Trump said that following the judge’s decision on Monday dismissing the documents case, his other outstanding prosecutions should also be thrown out. He is still awaiting trial on two cases – a federal prosecution in Washington and a Georgia state prosecution – for his attempts to overturn his 2020 election defeat.
