"If you're wondering..."
“ If you’re wondering why Trump isn’t on the campaign trail
It has nothing to do with him having to be in court

1.) He has opened ZERO field offices (compared to the Biden campaign that has opened over 100)

2.) The Trump campaign has no money.

3.) The last time he had a day off from court he went golfing.

And there you have it😎”

Nope, I wasn't wondering.  :whatever:

1.) He has opened ZERO field offices (compared to the Biden campaign that has opened over 100)

Reality in Iowa:

Inside Trump’s Iowa campaign headquarters

The roads in central Iowa might be a ghost town due to the blizzard. But the inside of Donald Trump’s Iowa campaign headquarters in Urbandale was bustling with volunteers and Trump campaign staff hustling to reach voters before Monday night.

This was during what was perceived as a possibly competitive early primary season. Trump's campaign offices may not currently be open, since the convention is several months ahead, but that would be Trump's organization managing their $$, not inability to lease and staff campaign offices.

2.) The Trump campaign has no money.

In the real world (the source is NPR, so it probably down-plays reality):

March fundraising numbers show Biden significantly outpacing Trump

Quote
Compare that to Trump, whose campaign, combined with the Republican National Committee, reported raising $66 million in the month of March. They finished with $93 million on hand, nearly $100 million less than Biden and Democrats.

My emphasis, to rub DUmmies' noses in DU-member spooky3's stupidity/lie.

Reality is, ummmm, more complex. Sampling the month of April:

Trump goes from court to campaign at a bodega in his heavily Democratic hometown (https://apnews.com/article/trump-harlem-trial-bodega-909f0abee3f1951a2ffdabc8072d61a7)

Trump Visits a Construction Site in Manhattan Before His Trial Resumes (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/25/us/politics/trump-construction-site-manhattan-trial.html)

Trump cancels campaign rally in North Carolina due to stormy weather (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-cancels-campaign-rally-north-carolina-stormy-weather-rcna148323) 4/21 rally in North Carolina, cancelled due to weather, not a golf game.

Trump returns to the trail with stops in Michigan, Wisconsin (https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2024/04/02/election-2024-campaign-updates/)

Bragg's Show Trial is tethering Trump to NYC, as designed, but Trump is out campaigning.

I don't know from whose rectum DU-member spooky3 pulled their factoids, but, unsurprisingly, DU-member spooky3's factoids are falsehoods.

It looks like trump doesn't need to be campaigning as much as Sloppy Joe does. I mean with the media covering all the trails as much as they are and the numbers are going in Trumps favor for the election as it stands now, it could be a beat down that Slow Joe will never let go of.

Trump spent roughly half as much as the Wicked Witch in 2016 and still won.

And yet he's leading every damn poll despite never leading in 2020 or 2016.

In my best PedoBiden whisper voice...... Thanks for all the free publicity

Coming to Wisconsin and Michigan, https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/29/politics/donald-trump-trial-campaign-trail-2024/index.html . spooky3's fantasy hardest hit.
