Incredible: the novel coronavirus has more spine than Republicans.
Unlike the Senate Republicans who ask "How high?" when Trump rage tweets his delusions and wishes, the virus doesn't care what he thinks about it. He can't just fire the virus or throw it under the bus, he can't just give it a nickname (although I think he's tried by simply referring to it as "Flu" ), he can't threaten it and he can't ignore it. The virus is not beholden to Trump to make him look good or otherwise cover his incompetent ass, and for that matter it may finally show Trump's base what Republican Senators and conservative talking heads refuse to admit, although they most certainly know it to be true: the emperor has no clothes.
