‘Never Been Done Before’: Trump Mulls Holding Republican National Convention Ahead of Midterm Battle

President Donald Trump said Thursday he may recommend holding a Republican National Convention prior to the midterm elections and said the party is poised to win.

Trump in a post on Truth Social touted how well the Republican Party is doing and said millions of people have joined the effort to Make America Great Again.

He wrote:

    The Republican Party is doing really well. Millions of people have joined us in our quest to MAKE AMERICA, GREAT AGAIN. We won every aspect of the Presidential Election and, based on the great success we are having, are poised to WIN BIG IN THE MIDTERMS. We have raised far more money than the Democrats, and are having a great time fixing all of the Country Destroying mistakes made by the Biden Administration, and watching the USA heal and prosper. The results are incredible, a record pace!!! In that light, I am thinking of recommending a National Convention to the Republican Party, just prior to the Midterms. It has never been done before. STAY TUNED!!! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Why?

DefiantMassRINO:
He wants hours of free live TV time in front of a live audience of thousands, and a TV audience of millions.

It's also counter-programming to consume TV air-time that would be otherwise used for Dem ads or Dem pundits to be on TV.

He's sucking air out of the Dems pre-election media blitz balloon.

--- End quote ---

To counter the enthusiasm deficit the party in power faces during mid-term elections --- and Republicans are super notorious for low voter turnout during them. 

I think this is an idea worth seriously considering.
