Imagine a presidential candidate taking an absurdly large number of days off right when the post-Labor Day campaign kicks off? Would that not be big news? Well, you don't have to imagine this strange scenario very hard because it is actually happening.
The Joe Biden campaign announced that last Tuesday, the first day after Labor Day, would be a 'lid" day meaning Biden would not only not be campaigning but he wouldn't be taking any questions from reporters.
This was followed by another day off the campaign trail on Thursday for Biden which is not to be confused by his Saturday 'lid" day which will be repeated on Sunday and, as of this writing, will be continued on Monday. The next campaign stop for Biden on the record is an appearance at an as yet unknown location in Florida on Tuesday.
Even more bizarre than all these "lid" day non-events for Biden when his campaign should already be in high gear is the remarkable lack of curiosity displayed by Politico, which is supposed to be devoted to in-depth political coverage, about Biden's strange absence from the campaign trail. It's easy to suspect that the Biden press corps is willing to help drag Joe across the finish line, lobbing "shamefully embarrassing" softballs at press events and raising no objections to hiding from the press (and the voters).

You must of had a good source. The lids I got usually only ran about 3/4 of an Oz. That's why I bought by the Lb.
Until I grew my own.

There's something that keeps him going - temporarily. Of course, he crashes and then needs a few days off to recover. :shrug:

So far nothing scheduled for Biden on Monday so that looks like ANOTHER lid day for him.
