So far, it has been a successful tactic. But how long does it take Joe Biden to play the invisible man?
He is waging a reverse battle against the clock where he wants to try to preserve the state of the day until Election Day.
If there were elections today, Joe Biden would probably win. But it can look completely different in two months. For various reasons, it is not certain that you can maintain your near-double-digit lead in opinion polls.
The crown situation may change: Today, most Americans believe that President Trump mismanaged the crown’s handling of the pandemic. But if the United States manages to rid itself of the infection while Trump can make a working vaccine likely around the corner, people’s perceptions may change.
So far, the crown has been arguably the deadliest threat to Trump’s re-election, but whether Biden still has that advantage on Election Day depends on how the pandemic unfolds.
The economy can be turned upside down; As in the rest of the world, the pandemic has hit the economies of countries with incredible force. In the United States, employees have almost no social safety net either. The path from the middle class to poverty may be short.

“So far, it has been a successful tactic. But how long does it take Joe Biden to play the invisible man?” Writes Wolfgang Hansson.
But in both Europe and the United States, there are indications that bottom may have been reached until there is a second strong wave of infection forcing new “lockdowns.” If optimism in the American economy returns before Election Day, it will definitely benefit Trump.
Forced tactics
Race Riots: Black Lives Matter The protests in the United States have also been, in many ways, protests against the nearly four-year Trump administration. Anger was so great in some parts of society that it didn’t take much to ignite the spark. If the issue of racism within the police and in society as a whole is high on the agenda, it benefits Biden. But if there is more and more violence and riots, the advantage may pass to Trump, who has made law and order one of his great electoral themes. Here, too, time can go against Biden.

Wolfgang Hansson: “The protests about the lives of blacks matter in the United States, in many ways, they have also been protests against almost four years of Trump’s rule. The anger was so great in some parts of society that it was not necessary a lot to light the spark. “
Through the spring and summer, Biden’s tactic, in part imposed by the crown, has been to remain isolated in the basement of his home in Delaware. It has worked fantastically well at a time when President Trump has repeatedly plunged into the swamp of the crown.
Biden has been able to increase his popularity due to the mistake of the president.
But this tactic is unlikely to work in mutiny.
Biden is more daring, but the contrast to Trump is great.
The president increasingly acts as if the pandemic is over. He travels and holds election rallies in the United States in front of a certain audience. Following the failure in Oklahoma in June, it has refrained from holding its main campaign rallies in stadiums with 10,000 to 20,000 capacity. But if the spread of the infection slows down, it cannot be ruled out that Trump will once again gather larger crowds and thus gain more space in the media.

Biden will have to show himself more. On September 29, the first of three debate duels against Trump will take place.
Visible Biden Risk Factor
The former Delaware senator wasn’t exactly successful in Democratic debates during the primary election. At times, he seemed confused and disinterested.
A more visible Biden also carries risk. The risk that care will fall back on your age and health. It’s true that Biden is only four years older than Trump, but while Trump makes a rather vital impression, Biden seems more like who he is, a man on his way to old age.
The Trump camp quickly fuels rumors about Biden’s incipient insanity. Trump’s nickname “Sleepy-Joe” has gained traction because there is at least a grain of truth in it.
The impression is not directly mitigated by the few appearances Biden makes where he can act slow and does not radiate any energy.
Trump is struggling right now, but he has the potential for improvement.
Joe Biden wants the clock to go as fast as possible.
Voters will not vote for Obama’s vice president primarily because they believe he is the right man to run the country, but because they want to get rid of Donald Trump. It is not Biden’s merits that can cause him to be elected without antipathy towards the incumbent president.
A clear sign of weakness.
