Default Bent Branch What to do?

In the pictures below, you can see what looks to be a completely broken branch (Main stalk). If I remove the wires holding it upright - the plant will topple to the ground. The upper section is green so I'm thinking there is hope for it.

It is a Sungold that I started from a cutting caused by storm damage. This plant isn't important to me, but I would like to use this plant as a "How-to-Fix-it" type learning experience. I'm thinking to keep the wires holding it up and possibly using a stretchy fabric type tape on the bent part? The bent part is about an inch from the bottom of the second picture.

You can sure tell how wet it has been here by the plant wanting to grow roots by the bent part.

Any ideas?
