Summary
Republicans are rallying in Dallas for a high-stakes midterm convention, with Trump headlining and pitching a $5K-per-adult payoff if his party wins—sparking debate over whether it’s political theater or policy. As GOP lawmakers brace for tough races, they’re painting Democrats as extreme and promising voters a return to stability, while Democrats accuse the convention of distraction and hypocrisy, focusing instead on real issues like jobs and healthcare. With the NFL season kicking off and history stacked against the ruling party, Trump is pushing for a historic comeback, urging voters to treat him as their direct candidate—and betting big on a unified GOP surge.
