Meanwhile, Trump is at a crucial point of the 2016 presidential election. Recently, his wife Melania received major backlash for her keynote speech and former GOP presidential runner Ted Cruz refused to endorse Trump during his speech on Wednesday.
Yet, Trump is still a favorite among white males in America. He will have to appeal to more people who are not like him in order to win the vote over from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
"We're at the cycle of the campaign when voters no longer are just trying to figure out who you are as a person -- they are trying to envision you in the Oval Office and they want to know there's someone there who shares their values," David Gergen, former advisor to four previous presidents, tells CNN.
"This is the moment when he has to be much less abrasive, much more inclusive and embracing of people who are not like him," Gergen added.
Even though this week’s RNC highlights have been ignored following Melania’s speech, that is not going to stop the Republican Party from talking about Clinton’s involvement on the Benghazi attacks and her private email server.
Will Trump focus on Clinton’s weak points during his speech? Or will he save that for later and only focus on his strong points?
