Honestly, there seems to be such a complete lack of touch with reality in this decision.
Who does he appeal to? Riding a motorcycle to seem manly is NOT going to solve the problems with his reputation as a candidate. (It's also SO OBVIOUS.)

The right wing is NOT the majority.

People have been dressing in drag for thousands of years.
If Republicans knew anything about history, anthropology, biology, culture, or fine arts they would know this.

Progress always wins.
