One of the most detrimental things about American politics is if you aren't the President, nobody wants to hear from you. When's the last time your Governor or House rep was interviewed by an outlet you recognize? But the President must appear every day for bad-faith questions or he's infirm.
I’m also pretty sure he like has been doing a combination of this, meetings with donors, the call with governors, etc.
People want the interviews and calls to be plastered everywhere by all of the media doing “dropout” coverage to be convinced it’s happening at a scale that’s worth noticing. 🙃
