About this episode

The episode discusses the Republican midterm convention, Trump's rally efforts, and reflections on the September 11 terror attacks with former White House chiefs of staff.

The Republican midterm convention wraps up in Dallas as President Trump tries to rally his base with a promise of a $5,000 dividend if the GOP keeps control of Congress. Meanwhile, the GOP loses a major redistricting battle in Missouri after the Supreme Court blocked the use of a new map. Former White House chiefs of staff Andy Card and Leon Panetta join Meet the Press NOW to discuss their mission to “not let America forget” the terror attacks of Sept. 11 after 25 years.
