Trump Urges Republicans to Vote By Mail After Criticizing Practice
It was the latest mixed messaging from President Trump, who regularly votes by mail, but has made baseless claims that the practice is “inherently corrupt.”
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Trump urging Republicans to vote by mail while having previously attacked the practice. The New York Times frames it as the latest example of Trump’s “mixed messaging” and notes that he regularly votes by mail, while Newsweek similarly emphasizes the contrast but describes years of his earlier criticism as corrupt and fraud prone.
