As long as Kamala actually provides details on how she plans to solve problems she will already have won. Trump refuses to explain anything he plans on doing, probably because he knows it will either show that he is in it for power, or that he doesn't have a clue what he is doing. Probably both. His only strategy is to insult his opponent, and I think he is struggling to find attacks on Kamala that will stick. She's not as easy of a target as Biden is.
Thing is... his approach to campaigning has been consistent since 2016, and he won that election. Just saying "he refuses to explain his platform, he can't possibly win" is a mistake. The reality is that the people who vote for him don't care. I don't really understand what it is they see in him, but it's clear that it has nothing to do with how intelligent or articulate he is.
The Democratic base and the Republican base are two very different voters.
Democrats care more about the details of a plan. They want to understand how it's all going to come together.
Republican base....they just don't want you to be a Democrat.
Let's not equate these two voting blocs.
He did have a lot to say about Clinton though, and most of his mud slinging stuck with the voters. Although you're right that with the MAGAs it doesn't matter, but I do feel that there must be many MAGA people that aren't in too deep and their faith in Trump is being chipped away at.
