Donald Trump Jr. is up now. He just received a wild round of applause from the crowd for doing an impression of his father chastising his social media presence. The cameras in the room panned to Trump, who could be seen laughing at the impression from his box.
The energy in the room feels more like a rally than a funeral, though I have spotted attendees at points lifting up their glasses to rub their eyes, or dabbing their eyes with tissues -- so a mournful undercurrent.
A side note: These speakers are surrounded on three sides by what I assume is bulletproof glass -- it's not just for POTUS and VPOTUS.
We should be getting closer to POTUS speaking, with just VPOTUS and Erika Kirk left to speak after Don Jr.
