About this episode

Rita Cosby provides live coverage of the historic Republican Midterm Convention featuring Donald Trump's unscripted rally to voters.

Rita Cosby provides live coverage of the historic, first-ever Republican Midterm Convention. With just 55 days until election day, President Donald Trump takes the stage unscripted to rally voters across 35 key swing races, urging the base to act as if he is directly on the ballot. The episode captures Trump laying out core campaign proposals—including eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security, issuing a $5,000 "Trump dividend," and rolling back federal DEI mandates—mixed with his trademark commentary on political opponents.
