One of the biggest names in the history of sports entertainment will be speaking at tonight’s Republican National Convention (RNC) before Donald Trump officially accepts the GOP’s presidential nomination.
This year’s Republican Convention is being held at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Tonight, Donald Trump will speak and run as the president of the United States for a third time.

“Two senior campaign officials confirmed to NBC News that Hulk Hogan will speak tonight at the RNC convention ahead of former President Trump formally accepting the GOP nomination for President of the United States.”
