Chris Hayes just reported that trump is going to host a "midterm convention" for Rs in TX [View all]

He says it will be in Dallas and will be truly historic. Man, they are desperate about the midterms. Problem is the more people see of them, the less they like it. Endless speeches by Paxton et al doesn't seem like a winning strategy to me.
