joining me now is our political editor for the "boston globe" and also republican strategist rich galen. we are seeing donald trump in less than an hour here. how does he move forward in that performance last night that some are saying are lacklustre and that he's holding this -- let me get my mojo rally back post debate? this is a tradition in politics. he needs to show the voters frankly what he showed them in the town hall in the last debate. he needs to engage with them and he probably should answer some questions as well with a few specifics. >> rich, to you, what needs to be seen? or does donald trump need to come out saying something outrageous to get that mojo back after last night? >> i'm wondering whether or not we saw the first instances. i mean, we've all been through these before. these campaigns are just grueling. you're up early, doing three and four and five shows a day. you get tucked into bed by the staff. he's my age and i'm wroonderingf what we saw last night is campaign fatigue starting to show. i thought last night, i really -- i've been wrong about this ever since
