New York Times Wishful Thinking: Coronavirus Could Damage Trump Reelection Chances

As much as newspapers insist they merely "report," they write up a lot of wishful thinking about how the Republicans are sure to lose in the fall. Such was the case with New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Martin aerobically rubbing a crystal ball on Thursday in "Trump’s Re-election Chances Suddenly Look Shakier."

When you have political reporters writing coronavirus stories in the MSM, you pretty much know the theme.

its their wet dream fantasy porn

Communists started this in China, Communists are continuing it here. 3 years of Russia, Russia, Russia when the chicoms are the biggest foreign threat. We should have allied wit Russia against China. D—m them for unleashing this on the world. Communism kills.

While NYT reporters rub their balls, Trump’s approval ratings are still going up.

[FreeperCell]

Or hurt theirs.

[Helicondelta]

It will help. People want a strong leader in a moment of crisis. Biden already cancelled all events and is hiding in a bunker to save his own skin.

after this wuhan virus episode passes, I can guarantee that POTUS is gonna go ‘scorched earth’ on the chinese-supported Sleepy Joe or whomever the Dems anoint

Couldn’t the “recession” make the Slimes close its doors?

Might be worth it...

[Sooth2222]

When the US does a lot better than China and Europe managing coronavirus, I would not at all be surprised to see President Trump awarding a number of Presidential Medals of Freedom.

I’ve said it a few times tonight but I’ll say it again :)

dems are the ones who blew this thing up so big that everybody felt they had to close down for March.

They blew it.

They should have let it spread and linger for as long as possible.

Their insanity and the pressure all felt to stop business will in the end kill this virus in it tracks WAY before the election.

And business will come raging back.

[Huskrrrr]

Sorry Slimes, my guess is we will be well on the way to recovery by November. Containment will work, new cases will go down, liberals will be wetting beds.

[Texas Eagle]

There we go. That’s what this is all about. Exploit anything that might damage President Trump’s chances of getting re-elected.

[LouieFisk]

If the CV-19 situation really goes south, Trump will have trouble in November - but if everything turns out fine and dandy, it’ll be a feather in his cap. Two edged, it cuts both ways.

[bboise]

But Trump is running against a dithering idiot!?? That has to factor in.

[HighSierra5]

So Vice president brain fart is gonna save us all.

[palmer]

The timing is pretty bad for Dems. One thing about the market though, 1000 point up days are not a sign of strength, and not sustainable due to profit taking. 100 point days are needed, and it will take a lot of 100 point days, considering the inevitable setbacks, to get our 9000 points back.

[laplata]

I doubt if any Trump supporters are going to change their minds and vote for a Dem. Their wishful thinking is a waste of their time.

[Paladin2]

It doesn’t seem that we are doing better than Taiwan.
