MSNBC aired a segment in which host Nicole Wallace and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude attempted to paint the outbreak as President Trump’s “Hurricane Katrina.” But even worse, they seemed to hope that the deaths that result from the disease would lead to the president’s defeat in November.
“We talked about the business community finally not kind of sticking with Donald Trump,” Glaude said. “But this may be, and you know Nicole, I should mention this with a little trepidation, but this may be Donald Trump’s Katrina.”
Wallace jumped in, recalling how Hurricane Katrina impacted the Bush administration:
NICOLE WALLACE: Let's just lean into that for a minute. Katrina was when moment when all the things that felt incredibly incompetent about the Bush presidency, the appointment of Harriet Meyers to the Supreme Court, the botched attempt to privatize Social Security. I lived it, I can go through the whole list. Was realized. We gave them a proof point we were incompetent and also people died. This has the making structurally for the same kind fo moment --
EDDIE GLAUDE: If there was every moment to shake that 40%, the folks who would allow him to shoot someone down on Fifth Avenue, it's this one -- because it's old people and young people, babies, old people in nursing homes. It's your nana. So so, it seems to me this is an event that could take down a president.
WALLACE: Its old people in nursing homes who can’t have their daughters and grandchildren—GLAUDE: So, it seems to me this is an event that could take down a presidency.
“If there was any moment that would shake that 40%…it’s this one.” Glaude says this was such passion in his voice, that it’s clear he and Wallace are gleefully hoping that enough people die to make make Trump’s hardcore supporters turn their backs on him.
In the clip we posted this morning from Dr. Drew, he said a bad flu season is 80,000 dead. A mild flu season is 18,000 dead. Right now we are somewhere in the 20s in terms of those who have died in the US from the Coronavirus. And while I haven’t looked at the stats, I’d venture to guess that most of those people who died were probably vulnerable in some way, whether it be age or some underlying condition. But none of this will matter to the left. They are eager to pin these Coronavirus deaths on Trump just to take him down politically. It really is sickening.
