LIVE BLOG: Donald Trump Vows Action, Law-and-order in Convention Speech

update

Donald Trump delivered his acceptance speech to the Republican National Convention, painting America as a country in dire straits, under attack both at home and abroad. He says he is the only candidate capable of making America safe and vows to take the actions necessary to protect Americans who feel unsafe.

Former Vikings quarterback Fran Tarkenton follows the shouting pastor Burns and makes a joke about how he met Burns backstage and he seemed so quiet. Crowd gives polite laughter.

Burns gets the crowd chanting, "U.S.A.!" and along with him as he says, "Red, White and Blue!"
