    Saying that whatever Trump does is political suicide misses the biggest issue with this election-

    Nobody cares what either of them say because an awful lot of the electorate simply isn’t listening.

    The Trump voters would keep voting for Trump even if he joined the Nazi party. The rest of voters have either tuned out or are pushing Kamala simply because she’s not Trump so she must be better.
    An awful lot of people have just made up their minds and aren’t listening for anything new.

    So having a headline that Trump says something offensive is news to nobody. What would have been political suicide a decade or two ago is business as usual today. Whatever standards we once have politicians to, we no longer hold them to.
