At some point the impact of the original bad stuff gets lessened, and maybe the person decides not to vote against Trump. No one is saying a strong dem vote is switching to Trump.
You want to dumb it down even further?

Trump wants to fight about accusations of his alleged criminality. He wants to fight about whether he should be impeached. If your opponent wants to talk about something, do you so allow him to frame the issues? Or do you talk about something else, like say, policy, where you can show him to be a buffoon?

I'll never teach a class in advanced debate or political posturing, but I do know that when the other side wants to discuss an issue - really badly - I should probably take it outside its comfort zone by discussing something else.
