Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, has not held a press conference in more than a month. While Biden has hosted some virtual events and given a handful of interviews to friendly media outlets, the candidate has been largely spared the traditional media exposure candidates typically face during an election year.
The former vice president's gaffes, while not completely absent these days, have become less noticeable as Biden hunkers down in his Delaware basement. Biden's insulation from the media comes at a time when the sexual-assault allegation against the candidate appears bolstered by new evidence. It also doesn't help that Biden can't stop saying the word intercourse.
As Fox News's Brian Flood reports, Biden's critics are taking notice of the candidate's inaccessibility.
**SNIP**
While Biden may be enjoying a temporary reprieve from the media, there is new evidence to suggest that the candidate's reluctance to face the music may be catching up to him. In a new Reuters/Ipsos poll, the edge Biden once enjoyed appears to have evaporated as more Americans now trust President Trump to respond to the coronavirus and lead the nation's economic recovery. As vice president, Joe Biden presided over the slowest economic recovery since World War II, so it only makes sense most Americans aren't all that excited to return to those same failed economic policies.

they’re gonna juice him with Ritalin for the debates.
And God knows what else.
This is going to be Bidens Tailhook lol.
Maybe the press is just not interested in hearing about his leg hair or being called dog-faced pony soldiers.
Let’s not be so hard on Joe.
His basement lockdown is tough on him.
He no longer has rallies where he can smell the fresh hair of the 10 year old girls there.
He can no longer massage the shoulders of the 12 year old.
He can no longer... well whatever else he wants to do.
Have a heart, Joe is suffering here.
What? When did that happen?
if Sleepy Joe gets corona, its all over...
maybe that’s the plan.
Biden can’t take any spontaneous, unscripted off-the-cuff questioning. In fact, no one on the left can.
Creepy Plugs Biden is trying to cover up the fact that he tried to play “Hide the Fingers” with an unwilling female staff member.
What a disgusting, loathsome, lying PERVERT!!!
No wonder his campaign in is in 24/7 overdrive playing “Hide the Pervert Geezer.”
Here’s my theory, when Joe was still able to get by on his bluster and raising his voice, they were still willing to let him out in public, knowing that the press would largely ignore his gaffes.
Now that his voice is audibly more frail and he’s not even sharp enough to throw shots at Trump and the GOP, what good is it to trot him out? Zero.
At this point Hillary is probably ready to suggest he go shake hands at a NYC nursing home without a mask.
Five people in attendance would not be worth the trouble.
Everyone knows that the mark of a real leader is to hide in the basement during a crisis.
It’s been so long no one can remember. Including Joe.
Gropin’ Joe becomes Silent Joe.
He’s leading from behind . . . or sumptin.
They’re afraid he’ll mess his depends and start slinging it around if they let him out in public too much. The less he’s actually seen, the better for him.
