Trump calls Dr. Fauci an 'idiot' and 'disaster' A 'bomb' in TV interviews but a 'bigger bomb if you fire him'
WND ^ | October 19,2020 | By WND Staff

In a phone call Monday with campaign staff that included reporters, President Trump called White House coronavirus adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci "an idiot" and said people are "tired of hearing about COVID."

"People are saying whatever. Just leave us alone. They're tired of it. People are tired of hearing Fauci and all these idiots," Trump said, according to Politico.

The president later called Fauci "a nice guy" but said "he's been here for 500 years."

The president's remarks came after Fauci said in a "60 Minutes" interview that aired Sunday night that he was "absolutely not surprised" that Trump was diagnosed earlier this month with COVID-19 after a "super-spreader" event at the White House.

The president called Fauci a "disaster," who is a "bomb" in TV interviews but a "bigger bomb if you fire him."

Advertisement - story continues below "If there's a reporter on, you can have it just the way I said it. I couldn't care less," the president said.

Trump then went to Twitter to continue his criticism of Fauci, who has served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984.

Maybe people like F**ci should be put into protective custody for their and America’s good. Hasn’t he said people have threatened him?

Fauci has killed more people than COVID when this is all over. Suicides, murders, and people dying untreated for many other diseases along with all the people worldwide.

Trump has got to get over his apparent phobia about firing traitors in his administration.

Agree. And Fauci’s attempt to discredit HCQ has killed multiplied thousands.

Murderer Fauci.

Yes but who the eff is leaking this stuff? Much bigger problem unless Trump is allowing it for some reason.

Our REAL enemy, The treacherous RINO Republicans in the Senate and Congress, are forcing Trump to keep these losers.

the story is that for some reason (if this is legit) reporters were allowed on this call.

Hard to believe but that’s the claim.

Probably related. If you don’t fire traitors, they’ll leak away!

But it looks as if in this case he knew reporters were on the call?

Luv it!

PDJT must have been in a situation where there shouldn't have been a leaker but he suspected there was, so since he has been strongly criticizing Poochie anyway he threw some bait in the water.

"Well, son of a bi**h!" (so to speak).

Trump had a rally this afternoon and was very complimentary to Barr. I don’t think that’s happening.
