But I bet it's enough to mollify the GOP, his core supporters were already printing hats and shirts with the slogan on them, and the media has no real choice but to move on as the debate starts the next news cycle.
Another month of this, it's like orange groundhog day.

Each issue like this costs him a few more of the undecided. It's not about the 40% committed to Trump anymore. It's about preventing that number from getting bigger.
So does this hurt him with suburban white women - yes
Does this encourage 18-34 year olds to vote for Clinton - yes
Does this give a reason for the Obama Collition to show up and vote - yes
Does it hurt trump amount whites without college degrees - a bit but probably balanced by Hillarys trade comments in the leaked speach.
So in the remaining ways trump can win he lost votes.
