Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Announces First Republican Midterm Convention
Caption: Trump Announces First Republican Midterm Convention. President Donald Trump has announced the Republican Party's first-ever midterm convention ahead of the 2026 elections. The two-day event will take place on September 9 and 10, around six weeks before the U.S. midterm elections. Trump said the convention will promote his administration's policies, including tax cuts, border security and economic measures. He described it as a "historic event" and promised speeches from workers, business leaders, first responders and entertainers. The Republican National Committee changed its rules earlier this year to allow a special convention outside a presidential election cycle. The event comes as Republicans seek to maintain control of Congress in November's midterm elections. The Democratic National Committee has said it will not hold a midterm convention, calling the decision a strategic move.
