    I suppose it will turn on whether she still gets picked. She’s following the playbook to “go national,” and it just seems to be going very, very poorly. It’s not hard at all to imagine what Trump’s instincts suggested to him, but this is going to be such low hanging fruit, and even in the MAGA crowd there’s a limited number of people who want “shoots puppies because farm tough” to be the main thing a candidate is known for. I suppose the base can be herded in the direction their orange god wants, but it seems like a poor use of political capital, even for him.

      All she has to do is give Trump a handy and all will be right again. Trumpets will get in line.
