The Republican Party holds, for the first time, a convention on the eve of midterm elections, an event that combines practical elements, symbolized by the bricks, with a lot of political rhetoric. The convention takes place in a context of financial difficulties, and Donald Trump emerges as the central figure of the event, despite his unpopularity.
Trump monopolizes the Republican convention, occupying a disproportionate space at the event despite unfavorable approval ratings. The millionaire challenges traditional concepts by maintaining himself as the absolute protagonist of the party-organized party.
The event represents a strategy of the party to mobilize the Republican base at a critical moment of the midterm elections, using the combination of concrete symbols and political discourse to attract supporters.
