'Could be very ugly': CNN analyst warns of GOP convention 'clash' security can't prevent

CNN reported from the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Sunday, with one of the network's political analysts giving an ominous warning about a potential "clash" that event security won't be able to stop.

Kaitlan Collins and Mark Preston were discussing President Joe Biden's call for unity among Americans, when Preston elaborated about a lurking threat behind the scenes.

"Unity is an elusive goal. And he hit the nail on the head," Preston said. "The fact of the matter is we are very much, you know, a divided nation at this point. and I only think that this has heightened it."

Preston continued, saying "we're going to see both political sides that are going to dig in for their, you know, their reasons."

"And there's going to be a little bit of a clash," he added before explaining what worries him most.

"The concern I have, Kaitlan, about security specifically is not necessarily what happens in here. I think everything here is gonna be fine. There is so much protection here," he said. "I wonder what's going to happen out in the city. I wonder if there's going to be a lot of MAGA protests or supporters who come to the city just to be here, just to be part of this, this historic occasion at the same time, we know there's going to be a lot of anti-Trump protesters that are going to be here in the city and just seeing those two clash, I think could be very ugly."
