How is Trump Going To Play The Wuhan Coronaviruses

This is Trump desperately trying to get reelected and minimizing the damage to the financial markets. The democrat's are pressuring the president very hard with the angle he is going to bungle the coronavirus. The agency heads or mostly now the temporary heads are acting chaotically. Trump is irate with the CDC officials yesterday saying community spread is inevitable and containment might very very painful for the USA. The virus is massively spreading around Europe and throughout the world. We are deep into the presidential primaries and a democratic socialist seems to be heading for the presidential. The news media from a month ago got the coronavirus pandemic deep into our heads and the rank and file people are indifferent or numbed by our deep and prolonged crisis with a untruthful President Trump. We watched in utter awe with how China locked down 680 million people...severe containment.    The Republicans seem to be holding Trump more accountable than in the past. What can't be denied in this crisis, the first tiered countries "seemed" to got the infection under control or stabilized, but the bodies are beginning to pile up on the second or third countries. Our economy is the best its been in seventy five years. The full benefits haven't reach the middle class or poor yet.        
Trump accuses ‘MSDNC’ and CNN of ‘doing everything possible to make the Caronavirus look as bad as possible;’ lashes out at Democrats

President Trump on Wednesday attacked CNN and “MSDNC (Comcast)” — a reference to MSNBC — for “doing everything possible to make the Caronavirus look as bad as possible, including panicking markets, if possible.” (He misspelled coronavirus in his tweet.)

“Likewise their incompetent Do Nothing Democrat comrades are all talk, no action. USA in great shape!,” Trump added.

In a separate tweet, he said he would be holding a news conference at the White House at 6 p.m. Wednesday, alongside representatives for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

On Tuesday, Trump had defended his administration’s response to the coronavirus epidemic against a flurry of criticism from Democratic presidential candidates, who said in Tuesday night’s primary debate that he wasn’t doing enough to address the deadly outbreak.

“CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling Coronavirus, including the very early closing of our borders to certain areas of the world,” Trump tweeted on Tuesday.

“No matter how well we do, however, the Democrats talking point is that we are doing badly,” he wrote. “If the virus disappeared tomorrow, they would say we did a really poor, and even incompetent, job. Not fair, but it is what it is.”

The president’s tweets came as Democrats on the debate stage in South Carolina blasted the way the administration has handled the public health crisis.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) ridiculed Trump’s recent unfounded assertion that the outbreak could “miraculously” subside by April — a claim that health experts say is dubious at best.

On Tuesday, Trump also downplayed the economic impact of the outbreak in the United States, even as analysts voiced concerns.

Maybe call a fake or exaggerated Wuhan Coronavirus National emergency? 

But maybe that is the right thing to do in this situation.

But the real deal is everyone is going to play their selfish cards all through this.
