I think it was Lefty Gomez who said he would rather be lucky than good. It is an observation that certainly applies to Donald Trump, who is finally facing the first crisis of his administration that was not self-created. Does the virus represent the end of his streak?
It depends on how long it lasts and how severe it is. If the virus causes a recession that lasts for several months, yes. If not, no. Right now, we have no way of knowing. The only thing you can say for sure is that if the recovery is swift, it will have nothing to do with him, because, as usual, he is doing his best to confuse the public and make things worse.
