Hope you’ve got one of your shocked handy, because you’re gonna need it:
Per pooler @laurenegambino, the Biden campaign called a lid for in-person events at 9:51a.m.

At this point, the real news would be if Joe Biden’s campaign didn’t call a lid.

Nope. Not at all.
The morning after the supposed Trump tax bombshell story – Biden goes dark. https://t.co/b7N9xUdLch

Maybe there’s a method to this madness:
It’s almost like this is all coordinated so that media can do all the work of the campaign. https://t.co/a1qx35aFKa

I see the pattern now.
Media releases some “bombshell” in coordination with the campaign.
Campaign calls lid in the morning after the “bombshell” so media can do all the campaign work around the “bombshell” and Joe can spend the day eating Jello and drooling. https://t.co/mBEsFoulR9

And give Kamala Harris a chance to run for president some more:
Senator Harris will be traveling to Raleigh, North Carolina today to give remarks and attend a campaign event.
— Pat Ward (@WardDPatrick) September 28, 2020
Hope Kamala brings Joe back a snow globe or something.
For what it’s worth, though, the Washington Examiner’s Jerry Dunleavy makes kind of a good point here:
I’d usually dunk on him for this but Mondays suck and we should all call a lid tbh https://t.co/iH7jUdDZbE

Fair enough.
