The heat took its toll, too, on a promised mass-protest that threatened to bring thousands who stayed home.
A combined 7,400 people had indicated that they plan to show their disgust for the president, via RSVPs on two Facebook advertisements for anti-Trump rallies.
Only about 500 showed up, and found pro-Trump activists creating just as much noise. They shouted 'Walk of shame!' in response as the rally-goers made their way to the front of a line that snaked for six city blocks.
An hour before Trump was scheduled to speak, there were an estimated 8,000 inside the convention center.
