Trump Bribes Americans with $5K "Dividends" & GOP Gets Weird at Midterm Convention

Trump’s Republican Midterm Convention flops with low turnout, empty promises, and GOP behavior that is just straight up weird (we’re looking at you, Tim Scott). Michael Kosta dives into the highlights, including Trump’s pledge to give out $5,000 "dividends" if the GOP wins the House and Senate, the president's unhelpful roast of Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton, and an onstage gavel that is just… too big. Plus, Desi Lydic hypes up the convention to Kosta, and even throws in some hand stuff.
