Joe Biden might still be the 2020 Democrat frontrunner in many polls, but his problems are mounting. With that, pollster Nate Silver is wondering why the Biden campaign isn’t being more aggressive in fundraising off a current event:

One thing I don't get is why Biden hasn't fundraised more aggressively off the Ukraine story.

Oddly enough, many others also seem to have an idea:

Did Hillary fundraise on videos of her falling down? https://t.co/MvN1jNq9Na

Silver followed up with this:
Yeah. I get that he wants to run a risk-averse campaign and to some extent that had worked well enough until Ukraine broke. But here's a highly volatile situation with big potential downside *and* upside for his campaign, and his response hasn't been very nimble. https://t.co/bf3a45HOmu

Apparently the Biden camp has, for some totally mysterious reason, determined the downside far outweighs any potential upside.
