Summary
Trump is turning the Republican convention into his personal stage, delivering keynote and closing remarks in a bid to rally his base ahead of midterms — even as his approval ratings dip. With him calling the shots on every detail and merchandise poking fun at his cowboy persona, the party’s strategy hinges on his star power, despite shaky media coverage and competition from the NFL season. While his team just now begins deploying massive ad budgets, critics question whether this spectacle can overcome Democratic messaging or energize voters beyond partisan loyalty — especially as Trump pushes supporters to “pretend” he’s on the ballot, amid doubts about whether vague attacks will outperform targeted voter mobilization.
