Coronavirus & 2020

[Yoda]

"Bold" prediction: This, like 99.9% of events that occur 8 months before an election, will have zero impact on said election.

Very much doubt that because this is going to be an ongoing and growing event for months. Corona's not going anywhere.

You are coming to the end of Winter. You wont see any Corona-virus in the US in June.

Coronavirus is not the seasonal flu. This is wishful thinking. There is zero reason to expect that summer will make it go away. I literally just read quotes from epidemiologists and virologists on this topic two days ago and they said there is no reason the spread wont continue into and past summer.

Possible. Unless there is a big-time, Hurricane-Katrina style mess, these natural crises often help the sitting President. It gives him a reason to appear on TV, answer questions, flex his authority and desire to help people, and just basically show off his presidential-ness.

The predictions in the early pages of this thread are HILARIOUS. I know hindsight is 20/20, but imagine thinking that any serious crisis could ever make Trump look presidential. He's made a complete fool of himself and spouted lies every time he opens his mouth on this issue, as usual.
