Mornin Lazy, you ask "....will it hurt if it is charged whenever I am hooked to the trailer?"
NOPE I've used true deep cycle batteries for yearssssssssssss in my RV's and when I'm driving the engines alternator and battery is connected so it charges them and NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. NOTE a proper and protected charge circuit back is critical!!
A true deep cycle has thicker plates and is designed for long slower deep discharging (like in RV use or boat trolling motors or golf carts) before recharging. An auto starting battery is designed to deliver a short term high current burst to start the vehicle then get recharged.

Wally world RV/Marine batteries are at best semi deep cycle, they can start a huge boat engine then still run the trolling motor. They are fine for their designed purpose and work okay but they are NOT true full deep cycle batteries.
