Summary

We take you to the Republican National Convention (RNC) in this episode of our pop-up podcast series on the U.S. elections, hosted by Ryan Heath, and break down what is motivating Trump voters in 2020 — including in key states like Pennsylvania. We also examine the part played by party conventions at the heart of America's political process. Alongside highlights from the RNC, you'll hear from Meridith McGraw, White House reporter at POLITICO; Tony Fratto, communications strategist and former deputy press secretary to President George W. Bush; and Daniel Twining, president of the International Republican Institute. We'll publish a new episode in this pop-up series every Tuesday until Election Day. And, of course, EU Confidential will be back this and every Thursday as usual. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
