The Republican National Convention is set to begin tomorrow, and unlike the Democrats, there will be few memories of the past highlighted.

Instead, President Trump and members of his family will dominate the prime time hours in a signal that this is truly their political party now.

The first night on Monday will feature a variety of Republican leaders, including Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), former Ambassador Nikki Haley, Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and the president’s son, Donald Trump, Jr.

On Tuesday, first lady Melania Trump is scheduled to speak, along with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R), and two more of the president’s children, Eric Trump and Tiffany Trump.

Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence will both speak on Wednesday. White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R), Reps. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas), Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) and Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.), and the president’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, are also scheduled to speak on the third day.

On the final night on Thursday, the president will speak, along with his daughter, Ivanka Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.).

Last week, the Trump campaign confirmed that the speakers would include Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the white couple from St. Louis who waved guns at Black Lives Matter protesters.

Nicholas Sandmann, the Covington Catholic High School graduate whose interaction with an Omaha Tribe elder at the Lincoln Memorial went viral, also announced he would speak. The McCloskeys will speak on Monday, and Sandmann will speak on Tuesday.

 

Mark McCloskey and his wife Patricia will speak at GOP Convention.

 

Unlike the Democratic Convention last week, the Republicans will not highlight their past presidents or top leaders.

While Democrats went out of their way to highlight former presidents Carter, Clinton and Obama, former president George W. Bush will not be mentioned at the GOP convention.

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed Joe Biden last week.

Senator Mitt Romney, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee, is not attending, nor is any family member of the late Sen. John McCain, the 2008 GOP presidential nominee.

 

Colin Powell, Mitt Romney and George W. Bush will not attend GOP convention.

 

The GOP convention will livestream through Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Twitch and Amazon Prime.

Like the Democratic National Convention last week, the Republican convention will air from 8:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. every night, with two hours total more programming than the Democratic National Convention.
