They're not panicking about anything. They know the more they keep him out of the spotlight, the better he does. Americans need to be constantly reminded how stupid and unhinged he is or they start forgetting.

He's demented, confused, and stupid. His campaign should be worried. The dems got rid of Biden, why didn't the GOP get rid of Trump? Because they're corrupt, that's why. They are hungry for power and money.
He is not worried about anything, he's not even campaigning that much. He's 100% relying on the fact that he's going to call it a "rigged elections" anyway and create chaos, because we have people in this country who still believe this dude cares about them or the country.
Remember when Trump was making fun of Biden for being too old and weak for the job?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Remember, like everything he says, it was projection.
He can disappear for 2 weeks and this will still be the closest election ever
My hope is that this demoralizes his supporters so they just don't vote.
Same.
Even when he shows up and listens to music, I hope it demoralizes them.
He nop’d on an interview targeting young black voters. That will probably excite his supporters and cement their desire to vote for him.
They'd likely have to read to know he did it.
They'll elect him even if he's confirmed dead. Just out of spite.
All that matters is if that corpse has a big R next to its name.

I hate that this is true.
Honestly… that might be the best move for him.
Him going out just keeps making it obvious.
I hate that you're probably right.
The goddamn polls have only been getting better for him...
He's probably, dare I say, smart for not doing many more interviews so he doesn't fuck up anything since between their plans to ratfuck the election where they can and his lead in the polls he's pretty much got this anyway :(
His team is panicking? This is the guy who hears YMCA and automatically starts jerking off invisible cocks. He hasn't had a coherent thought rattling around his very big abrain in a decade. If you work for him surely you're used to the most demented behavior every time he opens his hamberder hole.
Harris really left him shook, damn.
He's just old and unhealthy and can't handle the schedule.
But Harris being smarter than him has definitely upset him.
He's being hidden from view for some reason. Me thinks an even more abrupt mental decline than we've seen over the last few months.
I completely agree. I think his mental decline has been significant. I don’t really think he’s been as public as he normally is and when he is, he is extra weird.
They recently announced Trump wouldn’t be golfing “at least until after the election” citing security concerns after that idiot was caught down in Florida. But I’m beginning to wonder if he’s even capable of golfing anymore. It also wasn’t an immediate response to that incident, it happened well after the fact. It sounds like cover to get ahead of having to explain a drastic change in habits.
But the fact that this idea sounds plausible at all should be disqualifying in and of itself. The guy is too old and too senile to be president.
He’s sleepy and wants his naps.
How is he being hidden?
Low-energy. Sleepy. Sad. Incoherent and can barely string two sentences together. Crowd sizes are small too. He’s too old and should probably just drop out.
Totally false. He never stops a sentence. It's like reading the sound and the fury.
Harris should pick up whatever he interviews he cancels lmao
She is generally doing those anyway, except the Catholic event she didn't turn up to. At least she knows where she should be campaigning and going hard.
Good idea, but she'd already done one there
Low energy. SAD!
