Trunk Weatherstripping Problem

So ive been getting in my car for the last couple of days and realize that my car smells different, smells like something is sweaty, i pay no mind to it, thinkin its just the heat, so i go into my trunk where i keep my sweatpants, and im like wow why are these so wet....lift up my carpet and the wooden panel to see that my trunk has about a inch of water...im like so i start to investigate, maybe its coming from underneath, or maybe from up top, i run a few experiments and it turns out that my trunk weatherstripping is ripped and letting in water...so now my question is....is there a quick fix until i can order new weatherstripping ?

A small amount of RTV silicone maybe ?? Takes a long time to set up though.

So i replaced the weatherseal and the trunk still leaks like the titanic. Idk if someone can post a picture of where the taillight meets the bumper, cause mine has a gap, looks like the weatherstripping cant cover that part.
