I think people put too much stock in the "assassignation attempt = win" idea though. There are a whole bunch of things that were always considered to be true about US politics that Trump has proven to not actually be the case - a few years ago it would have been considered a rule of politics that someone who was even accused of a crime, suspected of sexual assaults etc. would never be able to win an election. Trump has broken all the "rules" so far, I don't think this is any different.
Has that ever been a thing in America?
