Fox News’ Steve Hilton had this interview with President Donald J. Trump as a preview of the RNC, along with his take on the Democratic National Convention (DNC).

The take by CNBC is interesting, and that will be our featured focus this evening. That is found following 2 of the 3 closing market snapshots, quotable quotes, our business nightly left-right headline recap, and prior to our final manufactured home industry stock tracker as reported at the closing bell.
