Manu Raju

Mediaite's Press Club

Mediaite editor in chief Aidan McLaughlin sits down with CNN's chief congressional correspondent Manu Raju to talk about a raucous Republican National Convention. Raju, who also anchors "Inside Politics" on Sundays, spent the week in Milwaukee reporting on the ground of the convention, which came just days after an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. He discusses Trump's big speech, the mood on the ground, and what's next in a presidential race where Trump's opponent, President Joe Biden, is facing calls from within his own party to drop out of the race.

Plus: Mediaite editors Colby Hall and Sarah Rumpf discuss Tucker Carlson's headlining speech at the convention and the future of conservative media as the Republican Party reshapes itself in Trump's image.
