US Prez election: Trump's rival is coronavirus, not Biden

Six months from Election Day, US President Donald Trump's prospects for winning a second term have been jolted by a historic pandemic and a cratering economy, rattling some of his Republican allies and upending the playbook his campaign had hoped to be using by now against Democrat Joe Biden. Trump's standing has slumped as the nation's focus on him has intensified during the coronavirus outbreak, revealing an erratic and often self-absorbed approach to the crisis. The result: He's losing ground in some battleground states with key constituencies. Experts believe that for the November election, coronavirus is the main rival of Trump, not Joe Biden.
