Uh huh. He’s working overtime to keep the Republican officials in his debt. He must be terrified of all the investigations the Democrats could launch if they take back either house of Congress. He knows how possible that is:
The midterm convention is actually the Democrats’ idea:
Senior Democratic officials want to hold a rare national convention before the 2026 midterms to showcase candidates and emerging leaders of the party, people familiar with the conversations tell Axios.
Why it matters: The event — a smaller version of the national conventions the party holds in presidential election years — would allow the party to fundraise and get media attention as it tries to win back both chambers of Congress next year.
- It also could create a national stage for Democrats running in key House, Senate and governors’ races to frame their arguments against President Trump and his MAGA Republicans.
Trump be doing nothing but gaudy, classless pageants all year to desecrate the 250 year anniversary but if there’s one thing he’s never afraid of it’s overexposure. He can’t let the Democrats upstage him.
