Dr. Jonathan Engler argues that the evidence (particularly in New York and Italy, early sites of reported heavy fatalities) is not consistent with the idea of a novel pathogen gradually spreading and causing a novel illness.

Can she sustain it, and even win? What does Trump need to do? Dan McCarthy joins us.
