Surely not...can this be true? I mean our recently arrived lib posters here are saying Trump is doomed because of the virus.

Quote:While most of the liberal media were sniping at President Trump by trying to suggest he didn’t take the coronavirus seriously or that he should face murder charges, CNN senior political commentator and former Obama adviser David Axelrod took time out of their Democratic primary night coverage to warn his colleagues not sleep on how the President was handling the situation, because he could ride it to victory in November.

Despite his big Super Tuesday wins that evening, Axelrod seemed concerned for former Vice President Joe Biden’s chances against a President constantly on TV, leading the nation through the storm.

Shifting away from discussing how Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) needed to drop out of the race so that people weren’t compelled to go to the polls and possibly contract the virus, Axelrod agreed with a previous point that the outbreak took away Trump’s ability to hold large rallies.

“But he has one big platform right now. We saw it today. He's the president of the United States in the midst of a crisis,” Axelrod warned. “It took him a long time to acknowledge the depth of that crisis, but if he consistently appears to be wrestling with that crisis, this is a country that likes to rally behind the leader.”

OH NO! Our President might be doing a... GOOD JOB?

How awful for #teamovercountry Democrats.

They are trying to push Bernie out before Iowa. The media have anointed Biden before he got into the race like they did with Hillary.

I love how something good for the country that saves lives is viewed as bad by Democrats. Good Lord, people. Get a grip.

If we get control of this and it dies down by mid-summer (which I expect, with a helping hand from the weather) then I think Trump wins bigly. If it gets out of hand, democrats will celebrate that it could do what "Russia" and "Ukraine" and whatever else they've tried couldn't.

I know. The article uses the word, "warned". Amazing.

Back when I was a Republican...I'm presently in Recovery...I detested David Axelrod. Primarily because he was so successful in destroying Republican Candidates for POTUS. Ultimately, I grew to have a grudging respect for his talents. He might be the best Presidential Campaign Director of this century. And on this recent quote, I agree with him. If President Trump can get control of the virus thing by September he has a much better shot at re-election that he does now. Of course, that also assumes he can figure out a way to solve the resulting 2+ trillion dollar hole we will be in after he tries to fix the economic shambles that will result.
And regardless of what happens in the meantime, neither Trump nor Biden is gonna win big in November. it's going to be scary close. And it will set the stage for an even bigger and more acrimonious divide in the country, led by whichever embittered Party is on the losing side.

I think when the weather improves, so will this.. Unless its in places like NYC, SF, etc., where people live on top of each other..

Team over country. This just reinforces that strange belief system.
