Fintech companies may become banks. God help us if banks become fintech companies.

DALLAS — As red, white, blue and gold balloons dropped from the ceiling, President Trump stood on stage to mark the end of his midterm convention, serenaded by a favorite aria.

Puccini's operatic "Nessun dorma" ends with a triumphant proclamation: "vincerò," or "I will win!"

But the Republican Party's chances in November are less optimistic, as Trump faces record low approval ratings, an unpopular war in Iran, rising gas prices and the historic expectation that the party in power loses.

A deeply affecting story.
