The Republican National Convention's come to a close - with Donald Trump emerging as the party's pick for US President.  

Trump officially accepted his nomination - and delivered his first public address since he was shot in the ear on Sunday.  

His convention speech has gone down as the longest in modern American history.  

If elected, Trump says he'll swiftly implement a range of bold promises - including tackling inflation, immigration and foreign policy. 

1News US Correspondent Logan Church told Jake Tame Trump was almost getting emotional when speaking about his attack. 

“It was a speech though overall, despite how long it was, it certainly riled up the Republican base. The atmosphere in that room was electric.”
