Trump Seeks to Rally Republicans Ahead of Midterm Elections at Dallas Convention
The two-day event is expected to draw about 20,000 people and features more than 100 speakers as Republicans try to boost turnout.
- Republicans begin their first-ever midterm political convention on Wednesday at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, a two-day event headlined by President Donald Trump aimed at energizing voters before November elections.
- Dubbed 'Trumpapalooza' by organizers, the unusual midterm experiment seeks to rally voters around Trump's record as the party faces grim forecasts that could cost it control of the U.S. Congress.
- Funded by Republican donors, the convention costs over $40 million and expects about 30,000 attendees, with roundtable access to Trump priced at $250,000 and photographs at $88,600.
- Many candidates in tight races are opting to skip the convention, fearing association with Trump's low approval ratings, though party leaders insist the event provides valuable national exposure.
- Speakers plan to focus on tax cuts, immigration, and the 'Make America Healthy Again' agenda while portraying Democrats as extreme, with control of the U.S. Congress at stake in November 3 elections.
