re: Democrats slam on the brakes - make U-turn on in person voting

Trump has to hit Biden on this in the debate next week, right? They keep talking about how bad coronavirus is and will kill everyone but as soon as they are their voting numbers are lower than they hoped they immediately reverse course. Either Trump sucked at handling coronavirus and voting in person risks your life or they are hypocrites and things aren't nearly as bad as they are making them out to be.

I mean, hell, even Biden a 77 year old votes in person.

Eta: I get that candidates want to be photographed/videoed voting for themselve but wouldn't the politically smarter thing for him to do is video him completing his mail-in ballot to show people how serious he, and coronavirus, is?
