Axios: “Even after emerging from his Delaware basement, Joe Biden has consumed less and less of the national conversation while his polling lead over President Trump has swelled, according to data from NewsWhip provided exclusively to Axios.”
“Trump’s punches aren’t landing. Biden is avoiding heightened scrutiny while Trump absorbs the blowback for his responses to national crises.”
“During this period of the campaign in 2016, social media interactions (likes, comments, shares) on stories about Hillary Clinton continued to climb, nearly doubling from April to July — even before the party conventions began. Biden’s have plunged. It was also during this time that “Crooked Hillary” saw the most momentum, according to Google Trends data. It peaked in June and saw another spike during the DNC in Philadelphia in late July.”
