The crowd, which some estimated to be at least 60,000 attendees, was jubilant with excitement to hear Trump speak.
A variety of guests, including New York artist Scott LoBaido, Scott Presler, plus Trump's running mate, Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance, and tech mogul Elon Musk were all in attendance.
Musk's comments during the rally took the world by storm.
He began his speech with, "The true test of someone’s character is how they behave under fire. We had one president who couldn’t climb a flight of stairs and another who was fist-pumping after getting shot."

The owner of X said, "Without free speech, there is no democracy." The remarks left some questioning his sincerity, considering many users on the platform formerly known as Twitter continue to experience censorship.
Musk continued, "We have the Second Amendment (the right to bear arms) to ensure the First Amendment (free speech)."
