## Resource

Republicans are rallying behind Trump at their midterm convention, hoping to defy history and retain control of Congress, while quietly grooming VP JD Vance as a potential future leader—though no official successor has been named. With high stakes and tight margins, the party is energizing voters by framing the election as a referendum on Trump’s presidency, honoring fallen conservative icon Charlie Kirk, and showcasing wins like tax cuts—all while positioning figures like Ted Cruz to challenge Democrats. The message: vote now, or risk losing everything. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
