    They don’t want him to look like a “confused grandpa” but I think you’re right that he needs to get out there more. Flubs and all. Joe needs to get out there and fight like a wolverine. By them keeping him “on a leash” he looks weak and voters see through it.

      Yea, if they keep him locked in the basement people just assume the worst - they assume all the right wing bullshit is true and he’s locked away out of shame.
