SEAN HANNITY: If I'm Donald Trump right now, I'm seeing a Joe Biden that is very weak, frail, a cognitive mess, that has a very, very, very hard job. He now is -- everything he's now doing IS to shore up his base. Trump's base is rock solid. You might have never Trumpers. In the end, I would argue, probably a lot of those people are going to go home because they know that our nation is in decline under Biden's policies.

But if I was Trump -- and I've had discussions with him about it, you know -- I'd go after Joe Biden's base. The base of the Democratic Party is a coalition party demographically. You see these massive numbers in polls, Hispanic Americans, African Americans, young people, suburban women. I would also unite the Republican Party around principles and ideas and policy objectives. I would remind people about what matters, and that's keeping our city safer, better schools, secure borders, lower taxes, less regulation, stop shoving electric vehicles down our throat, and assure the American people that once again America will retake our mantle as the leader in the free world.

That's what I would tell him to do. And can he do that in 5 minutes? Yeah. But, I mean, I don't think anybody wants to go to a rally that only lasts five minutes, so he's got to fill some airtime.
