Two days after the apparent attempted assassination of Donald Trump, Arizona's delegation at the Republican National Convention was led today by Shelby Busch, a far-right activist who told a crowd earlier this year that she wanted to lynch a Jewish official in her own party.

Busch never apologized for the comment nor faced any repercussions within the GOP.

Still image from a video showing a crowd of people, mostly women, at the Republican National Convention. In the center is a white woman with shoulder-length brown hair, oval rimmed glasses, a black T-shirt with the word "Arizona" on the front, and a red lanyard .hanging around her neck. She is speaking into a microphone while others nearby smile. Superimposed on the photo is a green oval outline around her face to indicate which person she is.
