I think the point was to show the world how batshit crazy Trump was.

Everyone has already known for decades now. That accomplishes nothing. Causing him to burn more bridges however is a tangible loss.

There are a lot of people, who do not care about politics at all and maybe just go and vote in the next election. Please do not underestimate how little the average voter cares.

Votes come into 2 groups:

  1. Partisans, who follow politics to a degree, informed, and already know who they are going to vote.

  2. The Masses, they don't follow politics. They may watch the debate and probably going to decide who to vote on either one issue or on "vibes".

Yup, we talked about the election, and my coworker didn't even know who was running and didn't plan to vote.
