It is hard to believe - but I do believe - a number of news reporters and commentators are actually rooting for COVID.

By that I mean they are happy the virus has surged in some areas, because it is easy to blame President Trump, which they do—all of the time.

Here’s looking at you, CNN and NBC News.

Also, the more virus we have, the harder it is for the economy to come back. Since Mr. Trump’s strength is economics, the contagion takes away that advantage. 

From the very beginning, the media has despised the Trump administration and the President. So, for them, COVID is a gift that keeps on giving.  

The more fear and unemployment the nation has to endure, the less likely the President will be reelected.

Without the illness, Donald Trump’s chances would be much better—no doubt about that. If a vaccine does become available in the next few weeks, Joe Biden will be hurt. So, it is possible, perhaps plausible, that the media is also rooting against a vaccine—which would help every single American. 

I guess I could be wrong about this, but I tend to believe my eyes and ears - and what I am hearing and seeing from many in the corporate media is, ‘Go COVID! We’d rather have the pandemic around for a few more months, then Donald Trump be reelected President of the United States.’
