<p>Leftists are, seemingly, rather excited that the coronavirus will torpedo President Donald Trump&#8217;s chances of re-election come November.</p>
<p>This past Friday on MSNBC, during a segment of &#8220;Deadline: White House,&#8221; host Nicole Wallace and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude speculated over whether the coronavirus would be the president&#8217;s “Hurricane Katrina&#8221; and both seemed rather hopeful of that prospect.</p>
<p>“I was thinking in terms of politics, right. We talked about the business community finally not kind of sticking with Donald Trump. But this may be and I should mention this with a little trepidation but this may be Donald Trump&#8217;s Katrina,” Glaude said, as reported by <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/kristine-marsh/2020/03/09/sick-msnbc-roots-coronavirus-deaths-rival-katrinas-take-down">Newsbusters</a>.</p>
<p>“Yeah&#8230;Let&#8217;s just lean into that for a minute. Katrina was the moment when all the things that felt incompetent about the Bush presidency, the appoint of Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court. The botched attempt to pass Social Security privatization, I mean I lived it, I can go through the whole list, were realized,” Nicole Wallace said passionately. &#8220;We gave them a proof point that we were indeed, incompetent. And also people died. I mean this has the makings structurally of the same kind of moment.&#8221;</p>
<p>Glaude noticeably perked up, arguing that this could be the moment that brings down President Trump. &#8220;If there was any moment that would shake that 40%, the folks who would allow him to shoot someone down someone on fifth &#8212; if there&#8217;s any a moment, its this one, because it&#8217;s old people, its babies, its friends, its young people, its grandparents. It&#8217;s your Nana,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Its old people in nursing homes who can’t have their daughters and grandchildren,&#8221; Wallace interjected.</p>
<p>&#8220;So, it seems to me this is an event that could take down a presidency,&#8221; Glaude concluded.</p>
<p>Adding to the hype, Glaude later said, “Real quick. Deadly consequences. Over 3,000 dead in Puerto Rico and here we are now.&#8221;</p>
<p>In recent weeks, physicians have scolded the media for playing up the coronavirus in order to create a panic. Speaking on “America’s Newsroom” last week, Dr. James Phillips, operational medicine fellowship director at George Washington University, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/er-doctor-98-to-99-percent-of-coronavirus-victims-are-going-to-do-very-very-well">said that most people</a> who contract the coronavirus will “do just fine.”</p>
<p>“Most of us are going to get this virus. It’s undeniable,” said Phillips. “You won’t find a single expert out there who is saying that this is going to be contained. “And, the more we learn about it, the more we see that the spread is going to be global and, for the most part, that’s OK because the data we know from China shows that roughly 98 to 99 percent of us are going to do very, very well.”</p>
<p>Dr. Drew Pinsky <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dr-drew-media-needs-to-shut-up-about-coronavirus-youre-more-likely-to-die-of-influenza">has also cautioned</a> calm amid the coronavirus threat and charged the media with talking too much of the virus.</p>
<p>“We are not overreacting; the press is overreacting, and it makes me furious. The press should not be reporting medical stories as though they know how to report it,” Dr. Drew said on Daily Beast Live. “If we have a pandemic, I won’t know how to tell that we’re actually having a pandemic because everything is an emergency. People that are infectious disease specialists, the CDC, the epidemiologist[s], need to take this very seriously. The press needs to shut up because you’re more likely to die of influenza right now.”</p>
