She doesn't need to be inspiring. She just needs to not be half dead.

I think people are underestimating just how weak of a candidate Trump has become.

It just wasn't really able to be capitalized on because we were doing a whole "the emperor has clothes" thing on the left so the left media couldn't point out Trump running around naked.

He's old and tired. And there's now 4 months to show him as not only a fascist, but a half dead one that's meandering and weak.

He was only able to cosplay as a strongman when his opponent was literally presenting with Parkinson's. Against a younger person the narrative immediately becomes "old man yells at clouds" and his BS can be rebranded as 'confused.'
