I mean, that was essentially the point of Boromir's death: the allure of the Ring corrupted him and he became an example for the Fellowship (and the reader) for the insidious power of the One Ring.

The movies gave him a much more pronounced Forlorn Hope scene but Boromir is really meant to embody why it had to be one the most unlikely creatures to succeed.

But yes, the very public merchandising is definitely the Trump contribution that doesn't have as strong an equivalent with the Democratic Party.

But then again the GOP is still full of mask-on Trump supporters without the nutcase pageantry.
