Can Trump really save the midterms for the Republicans? | BBC Americast
Can Republicans win the midterm elections and keep control of both houses of Congress?
It’s the biggest political event of the year, and this week Donald Trump kicked off the Republican’s campaign in Iowa, telling voters the odds are against him, but Republicans “need to win”.
The president’s chief of staff says this is just the start, and Trump will be campaigning for the midterms as if it were a presidential race because he’s good at driving voter turnout.
In this episode, Sarah and Anthony discuss why the midterm elections matter, what the stakes are, and Republican chances of winning.
They’re joined by a former campaign adviser to Donald Trump, Bryan Lanza, who sets out why ICE immigration protests and worries over the economy shouldn’t stop a Republican victory.
We also hear from Mary in Kentucky as we build our own “United States of Americast”, finding Americasters in every US state.
Listen out for what you might not already know about Kentucky.
HOSTS:
• Sarah Smith, North America Editor
• Anthony Zurcher, North America Correspondent
GUESTS:
• Bryan Lanza, Former senior advisor to Donald Trump

Prince Harry is back in the UK, but could his return help heal the rift with his brother, Prince William?
After six years living in the US, Prince Harry, Meghan and their children, Archie and Lilibet, have returned to life in Britain.
While the royal brothers were once inseparable – Harry and William’s relationship has been strained for more than half a decade, becoming increasingly divided by family tensions and a series of public revelations.
So could Harry’s return mark the beginning of a reconciliation or is the rift between the brothers too deep to repair?
BBC Senior Royal Correspondent Daniela Relph examines the breakdown in Harry and William’s relationship and whether the brothers can ever rebuild their bond.

Iran has said it is confident it can counter widened US sanctions after Washington announced what it described as an “economic D-Day” against the country to try to isolate it from the global economy.
Iranian Economy Minister Ali Madanizadeh said Tehran was “fully prepared” for the sanctions, which he said would lead to “another defeat” for the US.
Announcing a raft of new measures, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said any nation financially partnering with Iran would be isolated, and that banks and businesses dealing with Iran would share its isolation if they refused to cut ties.
The moves follow U-turns and extended deadlines from the White House in its efforts to end the conflict.

The BBC has been given a rare glimpse at how the Taliban is running Afghanistan, five years after it swept aside a US-backed government in the country to return to power.
In that time, women have been excluded from most workplaces, banned from universities and may not travel alone or visit parks and leisure centres.
In encounters spread over two years, the BBC gained unusual access to influential figures in the extreme Islamist movement, spending time with men who once planned suicide attacks or spent years in underground hideouts, but are now officials and soldiers.
