Whether it matters or not is for the future to say, but Trump's legal team went for an odd strategy which makes it easy for him to be removed from the ballot. If his strategy is indeed to get elected and then give himself immunity, then its a big blunder - by not contesting the charge of insurrection in court, and because the constitution doesn't distinguish between 'justified' or 'unjustified' insurrections, many states might not have a choice but to remove him from the ballot.
