After officially calling a “lid” on in-person campaigns events, Joe Biden met with a tiny gaggle of supporters in Pennsylvania just 20 minutes from his home.
With over a week to go before the election, Biden visited a field office and voter activation center in Chester, Pa., with video footage showing not much more than a handful of supporters present.

The presidential candidate was asked about his “light public schedule,” by a reporter, to which he responded by claiming every day had been a 12 hour work shift.

However, the media was dutifully on hand to excuse Sleepy Joe’s lethargy, with Bloomberg News’ Jennifer Epstein saying his behavior “fits with the pandemic mood.”
Joe Biden is making a local stop in Chester, Pennsylvania, this afternoon, per @tylerpager. It’s his only expected event of the day as he keeps up a travel schedule that fits with the pandemic mood but seems light compared to Trump’s. https://t.co/t1YkOXwigK

Biden subsequently accused Trump of “putting out super spreaders” by maintaining a heavy travel schedule.
While Biden retreated back to his basement, Trump embarked on three campaign stops, visiting Allentown, Lititz and Martinsburg.
