Trump has had anything but a "media blackout." As of October 18, Trump has done 59 interviews compared to 26 for Kamala. He outscores her in every form of media. //

NEW -- Is Trump tired?

“Of course he’s tired,” said one adviser. “Who wouldn’t be tired? I know the campaign isn’t supposed to say that. But it’s true. And it’s also true he’s kicking ass.”

This is a good visual of the media appearances for both parties over time. Clearly Trump isn't slowing down. //

Trump is doing anything but engaging in a 'media blackout.' He's accessible and, unlike Kamala, he is able to talk policy and string a noun-verb-noun sentence together. What he is doing is engaging his base and persuadable voters. He's not spending any time giving people who hate him the opportunity to define him. This is a lesson I hope all future GOP candidates take to heart.
