ABC’s Moran on the Gold Star Families at RNC Convention: ‘David, I’m Not Sure I’ve Ever Experienced Anything Like that at a Convention’
‘It was just absolutely extraordinary’
TRANSCRIPT:
MORAN: "David, I'm not sure I've ever experienced anything like that at the convention, the connection between this crowd and those family members of the fallen was just absolutely extraordinary. The emotions, the call and response the crowd started spontaneously, 'Never forget,' reciting and repeating the names as they were read out. And it wasn't just the compassion and the sorrow that linked the crowd and those speakers. It was the anger. I've been out here this afternoon talking to veterans, Vietnam era veterans, Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, about the campaign in general. And without being prompted, they bring up Afghanistan and the sense of shame and anger that they felt for the country and in this campaign."
