While I think your advice is good for pundits and most officeholders, I think Biden is holding off in part because of the constant drum that he is "running the persecution" against trump. Basically, he should probably accentuate the positive, but everyone else not directly involved in the current prosecutions should pile on. And rather than focusing on trump's general awful character, focus on his "plans" and his awful record--children in cages, taking military funds to build the wall after Congress refused to vote him funds, and a tax cut that barely benefitted most people and which is set to expire in 366 days as to them.
