Cleveland, July 22 (IBNS): With the race for becoming the next US President gaining momentum, Donald Trump on Thursday formally accepted Republican nomination as US presidential candidate.

Making his speech, Trump promised to lead the country back to safety, prosperity, and peace.

"Together, we will lead our party back to the White House, and we will lead our country back to safety, prosperity, and peace," he said.

"We will be a country of generosity and warmth. We will also be a country of law and order," he said.
