Trump Seeks to Rally Republicans Ahead of Midterm Elections at Dallas Convention
The two-day event will feature more than 50 speakers or presentations each night and includes a $10 million ad push in the Texas Senate race.
- President Donald Trump opened a two-day Republican convention in Dallas on Wednesday to rally supporters and boost vulnerable GOP candidates ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections.
- Trump aims to frame the midterm election as a referendum on his record, recently telling a South Carolina crowd, "Pretend, please, that I'm on the ballot."
- MAGA Inc., the president's political organization, announced $10 million in television and digital advertising for the Texas Senate race, which remains competitive despite Democrats not winning statewide office in Texas since 1994.
- Campaign manager Abel Prado, working for Democratic candidate Bobby Pulido, said the Dallas convention "definitely sends a signal that they're scared about Texas."
- Major broadcast networks have not committed to full nightly coverage, and the convention competes directly with the NFL season kickoff, potentially limiting reach despite more than 50 speakers each night.
