Biden has put a lid on it from today until Thurday's debate while Trump is out doing 2-3 rallies a day. (politicians, retired)

Biden doesn't have to campaign. The media is campaigning for him. The tech companies are suppressing information and his opponent.
Literally all he has to do is stay alive.
But that won't be enough. The turnout will win 2020 for Trump. Yes, the MSM is a powerful ally but it won't carry Biden across the finish line. Voters who don't like either candidate are going to stay home or leave the top of the ticket *unmarked which is what we saw happen in 2016.
Add to this the Trumps base is just as strong if not stronger than in 2016 and the voter registration in a number of the battle ground states favor Rep.

I hope you are right. At this point Trump needs to win to repudiate the American media and tech monopolies that believe they can be "king makers" from now on.
If Trump pulls it off, it's game over for the media. It will show them they do not have the power they are shamelessly attempting to wield. It will also show that their attempt to become the propaganda wing of the Democratic party failed.
If Biden wins, however, then it's the death of the Republic. The tech oligarchs might as well set up shop INSIDE the white house.
The fourth estate needs to be burned to the ground. Hopefully something more fair can rise from the ashes.
I think the questions are skewed and twisted and biased these days.
So- Biden has to hold gatherings that meet your approval, and a televised debate just won't do because you believe the questions are skewed and biased.
Just what does Joe have to do to meet your approval then? do you have any more hoops for him to jump through? If you do, why not list them all at once instead of dragging things out like this?
Or even better, just admit you'll never vote for Biden an drop this silly pretense of yours.
Well, Trump just waddled out of a half-done 60 minutes interview and started Twitter-blasting Lesley Stahl, so I guess his media strategy is still a bit on the confrontational side.
Biden is prepping for the debate. That is something Trump can't or refuses to do and it shows. Instead he prefers running around spreading Covid and getting his all-important ego stroked. Last time those trying to help him said he had no attention span and was so easily distracted that the prep was a useless...what little he did. Now they need a net to catch him and a strait jacket to make him pay attention.

It's all part of the long-range planning of a man who is obviously a genius. Walking out of the interview was just the set up for what he's getting ready to do.

Then, after a bit of time after he is installed, he resigns and Harris takes over. And then the least popular Democratic nominee ends up running the country and the left creams their jeans over having the first "woman of color" president.
The tech companies are rewarded for their loyalty by having no opposition to their monopolies or abuse of Section 230 protections, and the neo-liberal corporate and war-profiteering agenda resumes.
Win-win-win for liberals.
Just like they did for Trump back in 2016, he got tons of free air time.

That's really what's it all about, it's like an adrenaline rush to him. I say let him keep talking, the more people he will turn off. Like telling the people of Erie, he really didn't want to be there. I'm happy Biden took the time to prepare for this last debate.
Trump is the guy behind -- he has to do what he can......
Biden is sitting comfortably.
As an example -- even the Trafalgar group shows Biden winning in Wisconsin right now. YIKES!!!!! That's not good.
Biden is doing what Hilary was doing at this time when she was "sitting comfortably" ahead. She did barely anything, campaigning almost nowhere, and look how well that worked out for her.
