On Friday, CNN’s John Avlon played an NBC News clip in which a supporter of President Donald Trump revealed she doesn’t believe the coronavirus exists, Raw Story reported.
“You don’t believe coronavirus exists?” the reporter asked the Trump supporter.
“I don’t,” she replied.
The interaction shocked CNN host Alisyn Camerota, who spoke to Avalon about her thoughts.
“Oh my gosh,” she said of the clip. “That sound that you captured was just incredible.”
According to Avalon, the supporter’s belief is tied to Trump’s suggestion that the Democrats’ response to the coronavirus is a hoax. He also pointed to the president’s claim that the death rate from the virus is lower that the estimate of the World Health Organization (WHO).
