00:00To your point, throughout Biden's entire presidency, her approval ratings have trailed him largely.

00:08And aside from President Biden's concern about age and mental acuity, does she inherent the

00:14problems from his campaign, i.e. the border, i.e. inflation?

00:19And how does she distance herself from them in this campaign, because she only has a few

00:23months left?

00:25It'll be almost impossible for her to distance herself on the immigration issue, because

00:30that was actually her responsibility.

00:33And you can be sure that Trump's going to be running ads of Joe Biden saying, this is my

00:37immigration czar, this is the person responsible for it.

00:41And then you're going to see on the right side of the screen at night all these illegal

00:48entries and the chaos on the border.

00:54She's going to have to own that.

00:56I don't see her being able to run away from it.

00:59That aside, she's going to have an advantage that Biden did not have, which is among

01:04younger women and the abortion issue and abortion rights.

01:09She was outspoken in that.

01:11And I think that that's going to help her.

01:15Generation of voters who prioritizes the abortion issue and shares her point of view while

01:21it will turn off older voters who don't, they're not voting for her anyway.

01:27So the plus is abortion, the minus is immigration, and everything else will be whatever

01:35she says and does in the months to follow.
