'There's a heightened sense of concern within the president's circle,' Washington Post's Philip Rucker says. 'There's a realization too that Trump isn't a great fit for this moment...there's a lot of concern that this could go off the rails very quickly.'

DonStrachan It already has!

Never

bwazoo_2000 Fox News, wallstreet investors & basically everyone else are bailing on trump and his criminal administration. Abondon ship .... Abandon Ship ..... women & children first

LouDobbs When I was 5 or 6, I had to stay in the House because of Polio. They discovered a vaccine, & they will again. The Media seems to ENJOY FUELING CHAOS!

He doesn’t know how to handle it just like everything else

Trump might not be the right thing for this virus but more importantly the people around him are. No matter what Trump does, you people well find a way to find fault. Sad.

hardball He's been off the rails for a LONG, LONG time!

Stupidity

Ya think? Looks like the stock market figured that one out, too.

I’m scared to death of this outbreak. And not so much the fear of getting it as the fear that those in “government” are not taking it seriously enough

So looking forward to watching that hope it’s soon every day all day long

There is a spark of good news embedded somewhere in here but it never catches fires, it never grows, it never glows, it doesn’t amount to anything...

Says the network who is still screaming RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA

This is worse than Katrina. It’s Katrina for all 50 states. And he is failing.

Anyone who didn't know in 2015 that TheOrangePuckeredAnus is NOT A FIT for the role of *president* in 2015, is just plain and utterly STUPID.

realDonaldTrump

When he does go off the rails how will we know?

The word you're looking for is it HAS gone off the rails. We don't have an anti-viral shot, we don't have enough test kits, the test kits we DO have are not reliable, nor are there nearly ENOUGH. California, home of 39.56 million Americans was 200 kits. Let that sink in.

He hasn’t been a good fit in like, FOREVER! 🙄

It will and sooner than most believe. Buckle up!

FFS what moment is Trump a great fit for?!?! We are way beyond reasonable doubt regarding his unfitness for office. If he were in any other workplace he’d have been fired long ago.

Why not! I mean he’s already off the rails!!! As an american I can’t believe I live in a country under a leader I despise and derogates me as a person every single day.

President Trump on coronavirus: “We would respectfully ask the media and politicians and everybody else involved not do anything to incite panic because there's no reason to panic at all. This is something that is being handled professionally”

That’s great news

I listen to Republicans. Ive heard them for a life time. Trump, is a man they all like. So keep that in mind with dealing with Republicans. Dont let them stand behind you. If you're dealing with money. Get it up front.

He hasn't been fit for any moment in the last 3 years!

Lol. You guys act like Trump does not have people informing him on the issue. That don't talk to the public.

His wheels have been off the track for years

I think we are past could. He claims it’s a hoax. The rails have been left.

hardball taken down by 'the tiniest creature God in his wisdom put on this earth'

Lies lies and more lies

Let it happen.... His FAILURE will bring him and GOP DOWN

more a.s.s.--allegations speculations smoke-fake news. rather than blame trump for everything, do nothing dems n trump haters should advocate for eliminating/minimizing the viruses, contagious diseases, epidemics-hazards at our broken borders.

ThomPeterson9 We all know MSNBC is not a great fit for telling the truth so, it's hard to trust anything that comes from you...

JanePowers1 '..this moment..'? Only this moment?

Blah blah blah, more red meat for the base. Let me guess, a 'source ' close to POTUS told my college roommates brothers girlfriends sister he heard someone think something !! This crap plays to your dwindling base, nowhere else. clownshoes

Ya think?

We the Patriots know exactly what has been happening and what is being done you are only news to yourselves rotflmfao

If it’s on msnbc, it’s usually 75% hyped up, made for drama BS.

Please just SHUT UP with your constant bigotry!

Hope he rolls off and crashes!

We're nearing the end of the track.

Well, some people are just slow.

Shame on you.

hardball He was never a great fit to be president of thos great nation, and commander of our military

They're using the coronavirus as a political weapon to affect both the economy and the elections. These same sources are against the travel bans Trump has in place. Only the Crazies don't see what's happening.

What’s awesome about your hate for Trump is that the day after he is re-elected YOU will believe in Jesus👍 After all your attempts: Fake Russian Collusion, Fake Whistle Blower, Coronavirus, Fake News etc& he’s STILL re-elected you too will believe he is protected by the Lord🙏😉

Already has

Fake news

This jerk has been off the rails for a good long time.

He is not a great fit for ANY moment.

Could go?

Ya think? Character makes the fit and some people have little.

It’s gone off the rails miles ago! Idiots.

No sh!t.

Resist VoteBlue

Oh really... They're wondering that NOW!?!?!

So they’re worried about their political futures, not dead Americans. Party of life, my ass.

The sooner, the better!!!

I sense some fearmongering.... President is only one man. We have an entire cabinet of decision makers to handle crisis. please stop scaring the public into thinking Donald trump is the only person handling this situation.

PROPAGANDA

More bullshit from FakeNews MSNBC!

A great fit? There is no genie putting that back in the bottle! To late!

'There is a realization that Trump isn;t a great fit for this moment'. We might not have a monster in office if the media didn't engage in chronic understatement. 'Isn't a great fit'? Are you f'ing kidding? He's a pathological liar. He lies all the time. Stop the soft spin.

“Could go off”? We are long past could”. Media DoBetter

All the fake news media does is complain. They don’t have any solutions. “THE SKY IS FALLING”

The GOP had a chance to remove him before it went off the rails.

But the GOP will continue to defend, support and justify his every word and action

I’m shocked. Shocked I tell you.😂😂😂

Realization?!? Good Lord I knew 11/7/2016 he wouldn’t be able to handle this. There is nothing normal about him or this presidency. I can’t believe people are STILL pretending there is. The presidents circle are a bunch of complicit liars. They’re not concerned, trust me.

I would love to see him have a royal meltdown.

Duh! Trump's not a great fit for any moment.

Ya think

Trump cannot manage a crisis. His way of managing a crisis is to be sure he has a pathway to blame others when things go bad.His inability to own up to his mistakes and weaknesses negates his about to lead.

Oh so now they’re worried it COULD go off the rails? 🙄🙄

Fake news ! Look at the data of past health emergencies. Much worse ! Stop trying to panic the public for political reasons !

HAHAHA, fake news gonna fake.

MSNBC....stop it!

And not one of those dick heads has the balls to stand up and do what’s right!

Opinion

YA THINK

BlueGirlsRule They wanted him to display presidential leadership? Oh my......

trump has been off the rails since he fell out of his mothers womb. He landed on his head. Now you know.

tressalog “...could go...” NotMySnakeOilSalesman 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fake fake news

The WP

Aahh yes all the behind the scenes anxiety and nail biting but no one with the balls to fucking DO something about it.

What MAGA fools will soon realize is that, unlike whistleblowers and people who testify the truth under oath, you cannot fire the Coronavirus.

Republicans it and the impeached president trump ARE off the rails.

OFF the rails?! I was still waiting to read that it was ON the rails!! FUBARPOTUS

Russia, Stormy, Ukraine, back to Russia, now blaming President Trump for the flu... is pathetic.

Could?!?!?!... Has is more appropriate

Zaimful I think the Republican politicians are getting nervous. They realize that the way Trump handles this crisis could make or break the election. They don't really give a damn about how it effects American citizens.

Too late. Already has.

Stop with the alarmist rhetoric. Liberals are incorrigible.

Sources for all this panic? Or just y’all making it up again?

Fake news never ends 🤷‍♀️

If he actually cared about the American people he wouldn’t have politicized this COVID-19 outbreak, there would be no filter on what we can know, and he would NOT have staffed it with Mnuchin and Kudlow!

Just a thought here, has he ever been fit? NOW IS THE TIME TO CALL THE ACLU AND DEMAND CIVIL ACTION. GOP complicit realDonaldTrump senatemajldr LindseyGrahamSC SenSusanCollins hold hands and walk right into an infected area. Its a hoax right?

Trump already screwed up… he’ll continue to make things worse… look at Japan, Korea, Italy, Iran… we should have been preparing for what they’re facing for a month… Trump’s “15 people, all doing well” speech, along with “it’ll magically disappear”… can’t bullshit this away…

COULD go off the rails, you've got to be kidding.

concern is way beyond trump’s inner circle! trump’s behavior worries many americans.

Human sense does not like any mel-functioning activities mean there is case behind the face. So, how clear it is, makes it easy to win the case.

It IS off the rails. He just called the Coronavirus outbreak a “Democratic hoax”. Sick man, even sicker followers.

Not only is Trump unfit for our USA also on this health epidemic.The entire greedy administration and definitely Republican Congress have shown how unfit they to protect Americans at this time.

While he’s screaming that it’s all just a hoax, the number of infected people who have no contact with China or overseas travel is now up to 3. Probably spread by those health workers who, without wearing protective gear, brought back the infected people from the cruise ship

He isn't fit for any moment

This is the dumbest article MSDNC has put out this year....🤣🤣

GOP had the chance to get rid of him with the Impeachment trial but they chose to keep him so they are now responsible for everything he does and everything that he says! 🍊🤡 says coronavirus a hoax and fake news so GOP have to take responsibility for that! realDonaldTrump

isn’t a great fit 😂

We have heard that for 3 years..if Trump becomes President stock market will crash, he will start a nuclear war....on & on. It’s been the exact opposite. Here’s one, will folks trust journalists and media again?

And Pence is totally codependent, so we will never hear facts...just skewed nonsense.

Wait what should be done on the federal level? We already flew thousand of people in from effect regions. What did you expect to happen? What policy would the Democrats do now to stop it? There is no stoping it.

It’s not on the rails now

duh

PhilipRucker JoyAnnReid andersoncooper chucktodd michelleinbklyn 'could' He's defunded the CDC, installed anti-science Pence as the czar and called the virus a hoax! Just ONCE, I'd love it if the media would grow some damn spine & actually call this out for what it is.

The continuing saga from the liberal media guessers. Maybe one day they'll be a democrat president and all will be right in their world. They can go back to ass kissing and mopping up drool.

He is an unfit man who will burn in hell.

I doubt someone within Trump ‘s circle is talking to you guys. I call bs.

Rucker names no source. He's likely lying and has no clue about 'Trump's circle' like all the other MSNBC clowns caught lying. What are the odds anyone in 'Trump's circle' would talk to some hack like Rucker?

Yeah just like he got us into a war with North Korea, Iran, etc. & everything else he does. 'I mean' The mother fucker creating jobs &shit, doing prison reform, & USMCA. 'That guy is unhinge' We should've impeach him from the day he got inaugurated. How dare he tries to MaGa...

I couldn’t imagine a moment he would be a good fit for?

How,? Why,? What do you base that on,?

Could?

Who will be the first in Trumps orbit to catch it? They all travel extensively. Someone will. It'll be very interesting to see his response.

according to the joke of news ,,,,,,msnbc,,,,,,,,,haaaaaaaaa

'Could' go off the rails? Don't you mean *has* gone off the rails?

The cowards won't drop the 25th Amendment on his ass,

Lad it went off the rails about 3 years ago!

Have they admitted yet that he is a very disturbed hateful man who is woefully incompetent?

Having to handle a crises competently.

It hasn’t been a great fit for 3 years. If they’re only coming to this realisation now, maybe they’re not really fit to lead either.

It would have to be put ON the rails first...

Sorry, though no one wants to go there, it is already off the rails. The only question is will we ever be able to get it back on the rails.

The “administration” has been palpably off the rails since inauguration.

Better go fetch cousin Ray-Bob. He ain't never seen a train wreck like this one will be!

Already off the rails. Thoughts and prayers ...

Hopefully in the midst of that brand of concern, there’s a smidge of concern for people sick, exposed, afraid of exposure & the healthcare workers in the middle of it all.

News flash: it’s already off the rails

I’d say about a week, MAX. If you don’t believe me, please watch Rachel Maddow‘s Show from this evening, it was incredibly informative, eye-opening and very distressing. This problem is worldwide, and happening extremely quickly, and growing at an exponential rate

Ya think? Really- anyone on the street could’ve told you this. Get some real reporting about his ACTUAL health.

Yet. MSM seems to want him re-elected. Look in a mirror. Start reporting the truth, sans filters. Enough of your manipulation.

lavenderblue27 For once his peeps are right

It has already! A science denier as the head of containment and a narcissistic fool who keeps calling everything, including his shadow, a hoax? What could go wrong?! 🤣🤣🤣 IMPOTUS will destroy America!

Get Face Mask Against Corona Virus Now, Protect Yourself From All Viruses:

Ya think? 🙄

Ya think?

You print opinions & rhetorical claims aimed at causing maximum harm to the President in a manner that would infer it was some kind of factual news item. Your actions are much worse this time. You’re actually trying to instill fear in times of national distress. Shame on you.

The big leader in the world...USA caught sleeping.....all other countries ahead of the 8 ball...Trump wishing for a miracle..Pathetic!!!

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. - Isaiah 66.4

he would not be able to destroy democracy and the country if it weren't for his numerous egotistic enablers

Tired of these excuses.

Ya think

The man's mind has completely disintegrated he was a fake and a failure before he got to the White House how in the world do they think the man is the one they want to go down there rat hole with?☠☠☠🤮🤮🤮😡

ya think?

Honestly I don't think anyone would be fit for this moment. There is a pandemic going on and somehow the actual pandemic is making less news than fucking Trump. Honestly I hope the corona virus takes out humanity, at least the earth will be saved.

A great fit for this moment....RIP 2016-2020

I fixed it for you. “. . . there's a lot of concern because this went off the rails very quickly.'

It was only a matter of time before a situation came along that he couldn't buy, intimidate, or b.s his way out of.

Stop talking about the possibility and focus on the fact it IS going bad, right here and right now. The damage this madman is doing to this country is not hypothetical... it's happening. TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus

Everyone is concerned, everyone thinks this will be the last straw, everyone thinks he’ll learn his lesson, everyone thinks he’ll become more presidential Yet...

I guess having a paranoid mental case running things ain't so much fun anymore.

Could!!!

Went off the rails a long time ago.

Trump reminds me of a abusive husband and America is the battered wife, and the GOP is the neighbor that won't say nothing or get involved!

Covid-19 is slowly in increments making its way into America is some very unusual ways yet unknown nor identifiable

Uh huh It’s very difficult to navigate a way through an emergency, doubly so when you don’t know which direction to head and can’t steer. 😆

Gee, what clued them in?

It IS off the rails. It never was on the rails.

Coronavirus is likely to go off the rails anyway because of the nature of the thing, but his attitude is actively preventing the right messages about containment from sinking in, which could cost 1000s of lives (or more). Once again, we are relying on patriot workarounds.

“Isn’t a great fit” is now a euphemism for “clear and present danger”. Ok then

The flu killed 50 million people in 1918. Pay attention people.

Trumps handling of the Virus has saved many American lives! It could have been so much worse had we ignored this! The FAKE NEWS and Dems will have you believe the complete opposite! They are not being honest with you! Again the system is trying to manipulate us!

Ummm... yeah

Trump’s incompetence has been exposed and we have a crisis in confidence. We’re on a ship with no captain, just a clown at the helm. TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus TrumpCrash coronavirusus

All due respect but we’ve heard this song before many times over the past three years. All the concern in the world internally won’t amount to anything because those concerned would have to cede status and lower. And that’s just not human nature, particularly in this admin.

Could? Oh, how that ship has sailed...

The same realization all logical sane people came to 3 years ago.

You mean Rails of Adderall

YOU THINK!

When are you ever right though?

Propaganda

Really? No kidding! He’s the absolute last person on the planet to manage this, putting VP in charge is a joke, “pray away the gay” doesn’t believe in evolution, science, climate change and on and on.

More like “when”, not “could”

“Could?” We are way beyond that.

Ya think?

You mean further off the rails.

“could go off the rails very quickly” is the height of understatement

That train has already derailed

What now they think he's unfit.....lol

You are off the rails . realDonaldTrump travel bans at least slowed it down. Up here in Canada our PM JustinTrudeau refused to restrict travel from China and put us all at much more risk.

Trump isn't 'a great fit' is pretty generous to him. He's completely unfit.

You mean basically wishing death upon his own voters and rushing head first into a recession is enough to make you think he 'may' not be presidential material?

datagoodies 'Isn't a great fit for this moment' - I wonder how long they had to think to come up with a way to say that so tactfully.

Good the sooner the better this way his stupid supporters won't vote for DOCTOR TRUMP REALDONALDTRUMP

There‘s only one headline involving the words 'Trump“ and 'Coronavirus' that would be of benefit to the world at this point in time.

Trumps ' Brain ' at work !!

LIKE HIS LANDSLIDE VICTORY ✌ AMEN!

Ya think

Assume this was written 2 weeks ago before it all went off the rails?

Already there.

His circle jerk circle?

*Has gone* off the rails. More accurately, there weren't any rails to go off...

NO 💩

Already derailed, where have you been?

'Could...'
