Trump Attends RNC

U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance will attend the Republican National Committee midterm convention in Dallas on September 9-10, 2026.
The coverage notes Trump’s personal attacks on Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton—criticizing his dress and likability—to spotlight scandals and question Republican accountability.
Paxton was impeached by the Texas House on bribery charges and later acquitted by Senate.
Democratic nominee James Talarico raised $31.6 million, compared with Paxton’s $9.3 million campaign total.
