My question is more about how did it advance his objective of being President again? A lot of people see such remarks as juvenile. Maybe you don’t or you don’t care. There are people out there who are turned off by those remarks.
Not everyone is going to love him. Maybe before 2024 the people can appreciate the fact that Trump isn’t a shady politician. You know where he stands. In this culture that is an absolutely critical concept for people to grasp.
Not everything has to advance your objectives. Sometimes you just want to have fun. Remember fun?
