MSNBC host Nicole Wallace took the politicizing of the coronavirus to a whole new level on Thursday.
On "Deadline: White House," Wallace said the "silver lining" to thousands of Americans dying and millions losing their jobs is that President Trump is being hurt by his so-called "lies" and "sins."
Here's her full comment:
"There is something both tragic, and pathetic, and ironic about the fact that it took a, you know, color-blind, gender-blind, state-line-blind virus to sort of have all of the President's sins from his first three years catch up with him. You can’t stand there and lie. You can't contradict your scientists because they're the ones that stand at 66 and 68 percent public trust, not you. He's down at 38 percent. Pence is lower than him. I mean, he needs those people whether he likes what they say or not and I wonder what you think about whether or not there’s some silver lining there, that some of the things that - that we’ve been talking about for three years may be finally catching up with him?"
