Trump Rips Biden for Lack of Public Appearances Calling Him a 'Low Energy Individual'
President Donald Trump is criticizing Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for failing to make a public appearance over the past several days suggesting he cannot handle the responsibilities of a presidency.
“Sleepy Joe Biden just closed down his campaign for the day (Again),” Trump said.
He added, “Wants to rest! He is a very LOW ENERGY INDIVIDUAL, and our Country cannot make it in these exciting, but complex and competitive times, with a Low Energy President !!!”

Biden’s campaign called for a “lid” on Thursday’s events in the early morning, signaling he will not hold any more public affairs for the day.
Biden campaign spokesman Andrew Bates weighed in on the media’s response to the lid.
“More often than not, there’s an inverse relationship between how panicked editors are about something and how much voters care,” Bates said.
He added, “This is almost universally true when it concerns process & it *is* universally true when it has to do with both inside jargon *&* process – e.g, ‘lid.'”
