    This is 2024.

    No attention is bad attention. Literally all that matters is you stay in people’s phone feeds, in front of their eyeballs. So yes… this is helping Trump, as the attention opportunity cost is literally anything but Trump.

      I’m sorry, that’s ludicrous. People don’t want to vote for someone more just because they see them more. That’s not how anything works. Elections, even in 2024, are not “look at me” contests.
