The Republican National Convention (RNC) kicked off in Milwaukee on Monday, two days after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

And pro-Trump fashion accessories — many of them custom — were on display inside the convention hall.

One attendee wore a T-shirt emblazoned with the image of a bloodied Trump surrounded by Secret Service agents, raising his fist in the air, surrounded by a printed message: “Impeached, arrested, convicted, shot. Still standing.” The shirt was paired with the bust of the former president’s head on a gold necklace.

Many wore custom caps: baseball hats, cowboy hats, sun hats, hard hats and yarmulkes.

One man even came dressed as a Trump policy, wearing a brick-covered suit symbolizing the former president’s border wall.
