Democrat National Convention officials announced Wednesday that Joe Biden has decided to skip out on the Milwaukee convention next week due to the Wuhan coronavirus. Instead, Biden will accept his party’s nomination in his home state of Delaware.
In a statement, DNC chair, Tom Perez, affirmed:
From the very beginning of this pandemic, we put the health and safety of the American people first. We followed the science, listened to the doctors and public health experts, and we continued making adjustments to our plans in order to protect lives. That’s the kind of steady and responsible leadership America deserves.
Wisconsin is a key battleground state in the upcoming 2020 election, with the most recent polling showing it is a toss-up. In 2016, Hillary Clinton lost in Wisconsin by less than one point (46.5 to 47.2%). While Hillary never visited Wisconsin during her campaign, candidate Trump visited six times. In the final weeks of the election, Hillary’s husband, Bill Clinton, known for his sharp political instincts, warned his wife and her campaign manager, Robbie Mook, that she needed to spend more time in the rust belt, particularly Wisconsin. Mook cited polling data showing Wisconsin safe by as much as nine points, and the fateful decision was made.
In analyzing the 2016 election, most experts agree that it was, indeed, a fatal strategic failure for Hillary’s campaign to take Wisconsin for granted. The decision to hold the 2020 Democratic convention in Milwaukee was viewed as an acknowledgment of that fact and a signal that Biden’s campaign would not repeat the mistake.
With Biden’s surprising decision not to travel to Milwaukee for his own nomination, some are wondering whether he is making the same mistake Clinton did just four years ago.

I’m still expecting Biden to appear like Max Headroom. Although with the improved technology, the glitches will be his.
Well, he is kinda retarded
I wonder if his speech will be prerecorded, rather than live.
Biden’s handlers don’t want him to be in position to make an insufficiently controlled speech.
The cops refuse to provide security for him and the demon-rats. The Chinese are probably cloning him as we speak since the real Joe thinks all Blacks are junkies. Joe’s issues have kept him out of the public eye for the last. 20 years. Comrade Obummer would rarely let him speak even when he was VP.
So far the Democoronavirus scheme has worked very well for the RATS. They’ve destroyed the economy and are making many more Americans dependent on the government, which is exactly the way the RATS like it. They have their puppet presidential candidate chosen and the real president to be about to be installed as Slow Joe’s VP. It’s Susan Rice. The NY AG conveniently is about to drop an indictment on the president the week before the RAT convention, and the RATS are starting to think they have the presidency in the bag now! If it were your typical milquetoast Repuke in the White House I would be thinking the same thing too, but that’s Donald Trump in the White House. We’ve seen five years of this nonstop attack on him and he’s still standing while the RATS have exposed themselves as the commie punks we all knew they were. The next three months to the election are gonna be crazy to say the least!
I think he’s busy converting his basement into a cheap Oval Office knock off. He will play like a president for the next few months, including fire side chats beside his dog Checkers
As long as he doesn’t skip his Namenda and Aricept.
Past his bedtime.
Skippy...I thought that was Podesta’s nickname, Sniffer.
He will be well rehearsed, And definitely prerecorded. All stupid stumbling idiocies will be edited out. Savvy viewers will be able to see where the tape has been altered, though. My guess is he will be in front of that paltry bookcase prop, with a bug in the ear and a glazed look in the eye.
Trump should make a speech in Wisconsin the same day Biden accepts the Dem nomination.
Spend a full day there campaigning...
Please elaborate on this NY AG indictment of Trump you mention.
Just speculation. I was totally wrong. This is why I stopped gambling!
