Tom Cotton To Speak At RNC’s ‘Make America Safe Once Again’ Night | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Sen. Tom Cotton (AR-R) will speak at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday night, where the party will highlight its pledge to "Make America Safe Once Again," his team tells The Daily Wire.

    "Senator Cotton will be making the case that President Trump is uniquely positioned to restore our borders, our strength, and prosperity while reversing the damage from Joe Biden's failed presidency," a spokesperson for Cotton said.

    Cotton has been mentioned as a possible running mate for former President Donald Trump. Though that no longer seems like a possibility, the Arkansas military veteran has emerged as one of Trump's closest allies in the U.S. Senate.

    Following Trump's debate with President Joe Biden last week, Cotton weighed in speculating that the race is really between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris as the president's mental capabilities are in question.

    "After only 13 minutes, this debate has made clear: a vote for Biden is a vote to make Kamala Harris president," Cotton tweeted. "It's deeply alarming that Joe Biden needs to be secluded for seven days so he can speak coherently for 90 minutes. Remember, this performance is Biden at his absolute best after seven days of secluded rest and prep."

    Cotton has been a defender of Trump's foreign policy in recent months including in an interview last month on CNN with Jake Tapper where he discussed the former president's approach to the war in Ukraine.

    "I think it's important to look at the context of what's happened in Ukraine over the last 10 years," Cotton said. "I have noticed that Vladimir Putin only invades Ukraine when Democrats are president. It happened under Barack Obama. It happened under Joe Biden. It didn't happen with Donald Trump."

    "In fact, the weapons that Ukraine used in the early days of this war to fend off the Russian invasion are the weapons that Donald Trump sent, that Barack Obama and Joe Biden had refused to send," he continued. "One reason why Joe Biden - or why Vladimir Putin thought he could get away with going for the jugular in Ukraine is because of the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, which projected weakness and indecision. It was just a few weeks later that he began to mass troops on Ukraine's border."

    The Republican Party released its 2024 platform ahead of the convention earlier this week with points that are in line with typical Trump talking points. They include securing the border, deporting illegal immigrants, combating inflation, tax cuts, keeping men out of women's sports, and fifteen other commitments.


    "Our future, our identity, and our very way of life are under threat like never before," the platform's preamble, titled "America First: A Return to Common Sense" reads. "Today we must once again call upon the same American Spirit that led us to prevail through every challenge of the past if we are going to lead our Nation to a brighter future,"

    "Like the Heroes who built and defended this Nation before us, we will never give up," the document continues. "We will restore our Nation of, by, and for the People. We will Make America Great Again. We will be a Nation based on Truth, Justice, and Common Sense."
