STORYLINE:
People near where the Republican National Convention is taking place in Milwaukee are reacting to the apparent attempted assassination of the former president and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Michael Murphy, of Wilmette, Illinois is attending the convention "as a conscientious observer" as he plans to back Democratic President Joe Biden this November, despite his doubts about his capacity to lead.

He said it was "absolutely destabilizing and unnerving," when he heard of the shooting at the Pennsylvania rally.

"I’m glad the former president is is OK. … This is been brewing, to be honest with you. The tensions are going to, are going to explode. And so I think we lucked out. But, everybody’s on eggshells here."

Evan Nickodem, from Jackson, Wisconsin, is a Trump supporter and is attending the convention with his group Great Lakes Teen Challenge, an addiction program. They are singing the national anthem Monday at the convention for the opening ceremony.

"Yeah, I was just very shocked and horrified by the situation. And, we’re just thankful that that, the shooter wasn’t more accurate. Very thankful."
