Ever heard of a midterm convention? No? That’s because they’re pretty unusual. Republicans have never held one before and Democrats’ past attempts didn’t exactly become a tradition.

That’s not stopping Trump, who isn’t even on the ballot in November.

He’s bringing the full political spectacle to Dallas this week (think MAGA rally) complete with speeches, entertainment and even a balloon drop.

So what’s the strategy? And why is the GOP going all in on a convention for a midterm election?

We’re breaking it all down. Read the full story at the link in bio.
