Is there anyone out there who didnt expect cable pundits to turn the coronavirus outbreak into a Trump ruins everything story? For the last few weeks, CNN and MSNBCs talking heads have taken cheap political shots at the Trump administrations handling of the pandemic, with their characterization of the situation ranging from dangerous to the worst government response, ever.
As told by TV journalists, the story of the 2020 Wuhan coronavirus epidemic is that of a bumbling administration whose gross (and perhaps criminal) incompetence endangered countless American lives. MSNBCs Lawrence ODonnell offered a particularly revolting version of this argument during the March 12 edition of The Last Word: More people are sick in America tonight because Donald Trump is President. More people are dead and dying in America tonight because Donald Trump is President.
Watch the compilation below for the medias worst attempts to use the coronavirus outbreak in their war against the President:
Cable pundits have also tried to stick the President with ownership of the pandemic by gleefully labelling it Trumps Chernobyl, or Trumps [Hurricane] Katrina. The Katrina comparison in particular has really taken off on CNN, with hosts like Anderson Cooper using it four times in as many days last week.
New York Times columnist and alleged conservative Bret Stephens was so eager to slap Trump with the bill for corona that he gave the communist government of China a pass for its own crisis. When coronavirus broke out in China, people said, This is Chinas Chernobyl. Actually, its Donald Trumps Chernobyl, Stephens alleged on the March 10 edition of MSNBCs MTP Daily. Because what point is there in holding a tyrannical regime to account when you can just blame Trump?

That is what it is all about! The moment this news broke, the radical leftists thought about using it to bring down Trump.
The filthy bastards destroyed GWBush over Katrina.
Really? I haven't heard about any.
Oops! Ya forgot Waterloo and Little Big Horn...
Never let a crisis go to waste.
Actually this is the MSM "Titanic Moment"
In the end Trump is showing what a true leader faced with a crisis is all about, and strengthening his “ make it in the USA” push.
The dependance on foreign sources pushed by the lobbyists will come to an end
when this is all over, or at least be sourced from better partners than the Chinese.
Joe B will also be faced with his “ China isn’t a threat” in the mano y mano matchup for the presidency.
I can see the ads now. Barry /Joe accomplishments 0, The Donald, a long list.
Throw in the big payment made by China to Hunter and Plugs has some real splainning to do...
Wouldn’t it be Xi’s Katrina/Chernobyl?
It started and spread worldwide based on his leadership and acts?
They ought to be harassing the hell out of him? Oh, never mind, he pays their salaries.
Just a placeholder till the convention when he will have dire (or is that Die or )medical problems and have to bow out. He will have Clinton 2.0
Wouldn’t surprise me, or combo Joe/Hilly, then Joe steps down if elected.
In either case I think The Donald with a successful end to this virus will go after either of them. Hopefully bolstered by a blistering Barr/Durham report to expose the deep state and some indictments.
They are wrong. This will be PDJT’s finest hour.
Gonna be a lot of disappointed leftists and other panic mongers when we don't all die.
But the damage is done as the measures will far outweigh what the actual virus does.
The Media otherwise known as the DNA Propaganda arm is going to do anything that will harm our President Trump.
They will lie, cheat steal and convert anything he says to suit their devious ends.
While they snipe from the sidelines, it will be his Churchillian moment.
