If he gets the nomination, I hope you’re right.
For reference, here’s the speech I’m referring to:

I certainly understand what you mean, I’ve watched most of that speech before, and it wasn’t a stemwinder by any stretch. It was passable, and I’ve certainly seen far worse, but that’s about it.
I have read that that speech was far less than his best effort. Apparently his usual style is to move about across the stage and not stay anchored to the podium, gesturing with his arms and hands and only occasionally referring to notes.
But here he came across as a bit stiff and scripted and he gripped the podium too much. He needs to avoid all that.
But like I said, we’ll see if he can improve, he’ll have to if he intends to run and win.
