The next day, Wednesday, it was off to North Carolina for a rally in Fayetteville, that was the one in which a Trump supporter infamously sucker-punched a protester being led out of the arena. Trump returned to Florida on Thursday for the CNN debate, but no campaigning. On Friday, Trump rolled out the Ben Carson endorsement at Mar-A-Lago — again, no mixing with voters before heading to an event in St. Louis — and finally on to Chicago for the rally he had to cancel in the face of a massive, organized, left-wing shut-it-down protest.

Over the weekend, Trump campaigned in Dayton, Cleveland, Kansas City, Bloomington, and Cincinnati before returning to Florida for rally in Boca Raton on Sunday evening. On election eve, Trump flew to North Carolina. He originally planned to finish up with a town hall in Tampa and a final rally at Doral, his club in Miami, but changed course at the last minute, canceling the Miami event and heading instead to a final-night rally in Youngstown, Ohio.

The Florida total: one rally and one town hall in a week. It wasn’t exactly the schedule of a man who is terribly worried about the state’s 99-delegate winner-take-all prize. By contrast, Marco Rubio spent the week camped out — the words of one key aide — in Florida in what has increasingly seemed like a doomed effort to win his home state.
