The event is significantly reduced in size due to the pandemic, but 336 delegates attended Day 1 in person to renominate President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. Trump also spoke for nearly an hour in an unscheduled appearance. Yamiche Alcindor joins Judy Woodruff to discuss the party's messaging strategy.
