Political conventions are about building excitement for a candidate as they put their best foot forward in building the case for why you should vote for them. During this time you get near-exclusive media coverage while your opponent disappears for a week. 2020 was always going to be a tough sell for the Democrats but the virtual convention they have put on has been a disaster to such a degree they would have been better off not having one this year. To put it into context, viewership for the convention is down 48% from what it was in 2016. Translation, Hillary Clinton had more enthusiasm, excitement, and people interested in her than Joe Biden has.
In addition to those issues, Joe Biden is making all the same mistakes Clinton did in 2016 by ignoring some key swing states and just assuming to have certain states in the bag. As we had seen in 2016, nothing is certain and the Blue Wall came down. It's unlikely that Biden will experience the bump in the polls that candidates usually get after their convention and if Trump's convention next week is even slightly entertaining it will be a devastating blow to Joe Biden's campaign.
