A book of Donald Trump's best Tweets, a Trump Bible, and Trump breakfast cereal. These are some of the products available at this week's Republican National Convention, currently underway in Milwaukee.
As a serious, eventful week of US politics continues, 1News US correspondent Logan Church joined Breakfast to share some of the lighter side of the battle between blue and red.
While Church said the convention played an important role in the lead up to the election in November, he noted there was also an "incredible festive atmosphere" at the event.
"One thing that has struck me is the huge number of things you can buy with Donald Trump's name and face on it. It was incredible."
Church said, as a fan of US politics, he purchased some to show the Breakfast team, live from Milwaukee.
Firstly, he showed a Donald Trump 2024 candle, which he noted had notes of apple.

For avid readers, he presented a Collected Poems of Donald J. Trump — an archived hard-copy of Trump's posts to Twitter (now X).
"Tomorrow is the 10-year anniversary of The Apprentice, one of the biggest hits in television history. How time flies!" the book proclaimed, featuring a Tweet from 2014.
Church said the book was a whopping 300 to 400 pages, and a second volume was on the way.
Next up, Church took Breakfast to church with the Donald Trump endorsed Bible, which set him back $120 NZD.
Inside was not only the full texts of the Bible, but a copy of the US constitution, along with song lyrics to Trump's main campaign song, God Bless the USA.
Church then brought out the Trump 2024 breakfast cereal, concerningly labelled "not for consumption" on the top of the box.
As for apparel, Church donned the Don's shiny sequined American flag cap, and Trump 2024 sunglasses.
Church noted the RNC was set for an important day tomorrow, as Donald Trump would make his first public speech since his assassination attempt on Sunday, where he would also formally accept his nomination as the Republican nominee.
Church said the Democrat Party will have their own convention next month in Chicago.
