Episode Details

Donald Trump organised the first ever Republican midterm convention, an unusual two-day fundraiser and rally aimed at putting him at the centre of upcoming elections despite not being on the ballot. The event comes as his approval rating hovers in the mid-30s, with growing unpopularity over his trade war with Iran and voter concerns about rising cost of living. Democrats have labelled the convention a distraction from economic issues affecting American families.
