We break down President Trump's midterm strategy, including that $5,000 promise.
This week on the NPR Politics Podcast.
This week on the MPR Politics Podcast, the Republican Midterm Convention was basically a two-night MAGA infomercial.

Sure, though I will also note at this point that for most voters, this election is on pace to look basically identical to 2024, 2022, basically previous election cycles, even though Trump's actions have inserted a lot of uncertainty. voice-verified
The president notably has signed two executive orders, one aimed at new registration requirements, the other at voting by mail, and both, at this point, have been blocked by the courts. voice-verified
The Justice Department and the Depom Department of Homeland Security are voice-verified
are both also investigating the twenty twenty election, as well as voter fraud more broadly in novel new ways. voice-verified
And that has many experts and officials worried about what that effort could potentially look like as this election gets underway, specifically on this issue of potential law enforcement interference in either voting or vote counting. voice-verified
Yeah. voice-verified
Not at the administrative level really. voice-verified
I mean, there are very few election officials, including Republicans who have bought into Trump's level of election denial. voice-verified
It's just a lot easier for Democrats to talk about the worst case scenarios that they're watching for, considering that elected Republicans have to obviously worry about the political ramifications of opposing Trump, especially at this early stage where we haven't seen a lot of these interference efforts actually take place yet. voice-verified
It's complicated. voice-verified
You know, they're threading this needle of not wanting to scare people, but also wanting to talk about some of these issues so that way they can re reassure voters that the election system is secure and that it is safe to vote. voice-verified
You know, I was talking about this dynamic this summer with a few election officials at an event hosted by the Center for Election Innovation and Research, and Connecticut's Secretary of State, Democrat Stephanie Thomas, told me that people approach her all the time who are worried and can't even really describe why. voice-verified
You know, it's worth noting, Juana, that midterm elections are already much lower turnout elections than presidentials. voice-verified
Twenty twenty-two, for instance, lagged way behind twenty twenty and twenty twenty-four in terms of turnout. voice-verified
So there's a risk that these sort of ambiguous worries kind of amplify that effect. voice-verified
