Their main problems at the snap election was their previous betrayal of their core support and having Farron in charge. I am not convinced they would have been able to overcome those issues, but being a proper anti-Brexit party might be what’s needed.
At the moment we have the Tories as the hard/soft (depending on which rebel group is scaring the PM at the time of asking) Brexit party and Labour are a soft Brexit party.
The Lib Dems have nothing to lose by becoming an anti-Brexit party and they may well have a hell of a lot to gain from it.
Or more likely, they will turn properly anti-Brexit, go into a coalition with the Conservatives or Labour and then sell all their voters down the river in return for 5 years of cabinet positions.
