Shitting on the most popular musician in the U.S., possibly the world, helps him?
Wow. You think Trump is smart.
He doesn't have to be smart to use this tactic to get attention back to him. If he was smart, it would be a topic that would retain attention longer and not be so obviously narcissistic.
You do know there's such a thing as bad attention in an election, right? This is it.
If that's what he is doing he is going about it very poorly. Hating on the most popular and well liked American, with a notoriously passionate and dedicated fan base, is guaranteed to cause his campaign problems. This is going to cost him votes.

His diaper got full, he had to shit somewhere...
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.
Dude, c'mon, McCartney is still alive.
