With just 40 days to go before the November election, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has once again called a “lid” on the day’s activities.
Thursday’s 9:20 am call marked the 9th day — in the month of September alone — that the campaign has called a lid before noon.
BBC reporter Nick Bryant drew a comparison between the Biden campaign and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, saying, “Calling a lid so early in the day is extraordinary this close to an election. Reminds me of following Hillary Clinton in 2016, who had days when her handlers would hardly schedule any appearances. The campaign felt listless and complacent. Is Joe Biden falling into the same trap?”
