    Keep in mind that it’s still February. The election is in November. If he did all of that now, the energy it generates would be worn off by then. Hopefully the strategy is to gear up the campaign in summer.

      You’re right…

      Got to remember Biden is 81 years old and isn’t capable of campaigning for a long time…

      Surely nothing bad will happen if he waits till the last minute. And it’s not like being able to work for 7 months is a constitutional requirement to be president.

      /S

        Even with the /s, this is insane. Campaigning is all about marketing, and timing is critical in marketing. Christ.

          His opponent is currently making appearances while juggling trial dates and is nearly as old. Covid was a good excuse to keep Biden hidden last election, but he’s going to have to be much more visible this time.

          Yes, everyone knows with a capable, young, intelligent, and capable candidate, the trick is to hide them to the last second as a surprise.

          So then hiding Biden has nothing to do with his lack of ability.

          This is totally normal!

          That’s why no one is bothering to talk about the election right now and political stump speeches and advertising doesn’t start till Halloween.
