The Trump campaign has released a list of speakers who will participate in August’s newly-virtual republican National Convention, which will be held in Zoom boxes prior to Trump’s acceptance speech.
Headliners will include conservative YouTubers Diamond & Silk, former television actor Scott Baio, gun enthusiast Ted Nugent, and second-generation performer Antonio Sabato, Jr., according to the Hollywood Reporter’s Mike Sington.

The conservative movement has long belittled the influence of “Hollywood elites,” which may have played a role in the selection of convention speakers.
UPDATE: Trump’s War Room has tweeted no official announcement has been made yet.
