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.

Trump says, "We cannot afford to be so politically correct anymore," elicits big cheers.

But Trump is back to the speech: Our Convention occurs at a moment of crisis for our nation. The attacks on our police, and the terrorism in our cities, threaten our very way of life. Any politician who does not grasp this danger is not fit to lead our country.

Trump is already not following a draft of the speech.

Donald Trump: Friends, delegates and fellow Americans: I humbly and gratefully accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States.

Crowd chanting, "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!" Trump then joins in.
