He's forcing Biden and his own supporters to live vote in red states and risk their health for his vanity. He can't think he can win this way, he can't - the only thing he is doing with this is risk the health and lives of progressives in red states for his own benefit. He is protecting his own health, but not ours.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
