How Long Before Trump Fires Dr. Fauci?

• “Fauci is now saying that had Trump listened to the medical experts earlier he could’ve saved more lives,” wrote Lorraine.
• “Fauci was telling people on February 29th that there was nothing to worry about and it posed no threat to the US public at large,” she continued. “Time to #FireFauci.”

Fascinating.
Are these facts correct?

Of course not!

Fauci said on February 29th that the risk was currently low and that things didn't have to change right then, but he also said that the situation could change. The problem, of course, is that Trump fans either ignore the context or deliberately twist it to make Fauci sound like the problem.

Trump's base IMMEDIATELY jumped on Fauci.

They are twisting it.

They are even sending him death threats.

Reality just doesn't register to conservatives... wait, wasn't the Right accusing the Left of being detached from reality??

This is the interview in question-

Dr. Fauci on coronavirus fears: No need to change lifestyle yet

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, joins Weekend TODAY to discuss the threat of coronavirus and the possibility of the disease’s “community spread.”

Trump called it a hoax the night before but he needs a scapegoat. Messonier put it in stronger terms a few days before but hadn't cleared it with the White House so they sent Fauci out to soft peddle it, which he kinda did. Like he said, it's complicated, particularly with Trump in the middle of it. But it's all his fault, of course. Revisionist history at its finest.

I picked the second one assuming that the Fauci failed was being snarking. He isn't the point of failure. Sadly, I think Trump is officially done with him.

TBH, I don't care if he fires Fauci. I care about one thing politically now and that's the defeat of DJT at the polls come November. Right now the governors have more power than the deceitist in charge.

No, the second is certainly not as has been demonstrated in this very thread.

Edit: Wait, maybe demonstrated in the other Fauci thread.

Donald "Lying" Trump can't contain himself. He can't wait to use Fauci as his scapegoat. <--- Take the blame off me and put it on him. That is how a "snake" operates.
