Joe Biden’s campaign strategy is simple: Sit in his Wilmington, Delaware, basement and try not to say anything stupid.
Of course, it’s not working but he’s trying it anyway.
“Since his Aug. 11 selection of California Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate, Biden has had 22 days where he either didn’t make public appearances, held only virtual fundraisers or ventured from his Delaware home solely for church, according to an Associated Press analysis of his schedules,” Fox News reported. “He made 12 visits outside of Delaware during that period, including a trip to Washington scheduled for Friday to pay respects to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.”
Of course he made that trip. He’s always happy to politicize the death of a Supreme Court justice.

“During the same time, President Donald Trump had 24 trips that took him to 17 different states, not counting a personal visit to New York to see his ailing brother in the hospital or weekend golf outings” Fox reported.
On Thursday, Biden called a “lid” — for the week. That means reporters can’t expect to see him during that time.
Wrote The Spectator:
On Tuesday, at 9:22 a.m., reporters covering the Joe Biden campaign were told that there would be no more events or newsmaking to issue forth from Team Biden for the rest of the day.
The same thing happened on Saturday. At 8:35 a.m. on Sept. 19, Team Biden put a “lid” on that campaign day.
In fact, the lid has come down before noon no less than eight times this month. That would be 36 percent of the campaign days in the month of September in which the Biden campaign has canceled its activities before lunchtime.
Trump, meanwhile, is going like gangbusters.
