Doesn’t matter about the actual plan.
Leaking this is like “play along at home”.
“Oh, he said the thing”.
As it is, any time one of these points come up - whether it’s organically/naturally or not - people will go “well that’s shoe-horned in”.
If he actually makes a legitimate point, a good argument, whatever… And strays even close to one of these points, it will be disregarded as insincere.
Even if these were positive things - instead of “disparage opponent, defend criminal” - it wouldn’t matter.
It’s still gonna be “play along with…”, And that’s all that’s gonna be talked about after the debate.
I’m pretty sure opponents are going to reference this during the debate, just to twist the knife.
