'No Kings' marches took place across the US on Saturday, with participants opposing President Trump's policies including federal funding cuts to welfare programs, the war with Iran and aggressive Immigration and Customs Enforcement tactics. 

As the CPAC Conference concluded, GOP attendees showed cracks of dissension over the war in Iran, with some expressing opposition to the conflict. Trump on Thursday cast doubt about how quickly a deal with Tehran could be reached, as thousands of US Marines headed to the region and oil prices hovered over $100 per barrel. 

Both events could provide a preview of how voters feel about the Trump Administration heading into the midterm elections.

On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini speak with:

- Bloomberg News White House Correspondent Jeff Mason on the war in Iran overshadowing the CPAC conference.

- Florida State House Representative Emily Gregory (D) on flipping the district that includes Mar-a-Lago.

- Abby Livingston, Reporter at Puck, Ashley Koning, Director of The Eagleton Center for Public Interest Polling at Rutgers, and Ronald Brownstein, Bloomberg Opinion Columnist, on what 'No Kings' rallies and recent polling data reveal about the Midterm elections.

- Ed Ludlow, Co-Host of Bloomberg Tech, on NASA's preparations for the Artemis II moon mission.
