Biden is viewed as the candidate who is trying to calm the situation:
THE POLL also finds Biden seen by more as trying to calm the situation, while the president perceived by slightly more as encouraging fighting. And the larger notion that violence could come to "the suburbs" finds little concern among those who actually live in suburbs. pic.twitter.com/5uchbkXdYU

Trump’s law and order scare tactics are not moving voters. Trump tried to pivot away from the pandemic and the recession and is losing on what he thought would be his issue. Trump’s racially divisive fear-based message is failing.
The President has nothing to use against Joe Biden. There are no “Biden emails” or a comparable issue that he used against Hillary Clinton to take attention away from his own scandals.
Trump can’t escape the harsh spotlight of the presidency, and when he tries to divert attention, he still loses ground to Joe Biden.
