33:05Now PlayingBoth Republicans and Democrats are considering holding convention-style gatherings prior to the 2026 midterms, a move that hasn't been done in decades.
The fact that both parties are considering holding their own conventions ahead of 2026 underscores the increasing importance of next year’s midterms, which could determine whether Trump sees a check on power in the House or if he’ll enjoy a GOP-dominated Congress his last two years in office.
The Hill's Chris Stirewalt discusses the pros, cons, and possible outcomes of holding a convention for midterm elections with Bill Sammon, Senior Vice President of Editorial for The Hill.
