There’s a heavy emphasis on the word “should” here, but in a more just world, this would wrap things up for the President as we enter election day tomorrow.
Last night, Trump barnstormed the country, doing five rallies in a single day. If that has ever happened before, at least in regards to the geographic breadth, it has to be exceptionally rare. The last rally happened in Florida, beginning around midnight because this guy has absolutely no quit in him. I’m not sure there has ever been a starker contrast in a previous election than what we are seeing this year between Trump displaying unlimited passion and energy vs. a guy in Joe Biden who can barely manage to leave his basement (and when he does, we get mind melts like this).
But it wasn’t just that the rally happened that made it newsworthy. One segment involving Dr. Anthony Fauci stood above the rest because it may be the most important action that this country could take over the next several months.
Trump supporters in Florida chanted: “FIRE FAUCI!”
The President responds, “Don't tell anybody...but let me wait until a little bit after the election. I appreciate the advice.
I don’t think you need me to translate that for you. If Trump is re-elected, he essentially just indicated that Fauci is going to be shown the door and kicked off the COVID task force, and if the President weren’t going to do anything else in his next four years, that would be enough to justify putting him back in the White House.
Fauci is currently auditioning for the Biden administration, making the media rounds trashing Trump and predicting doom for the winter. He’s also been heavily promoting massive, long lock downs again as a possible solution to any new outbreaks. This is not following the science. It’s taking a dull butcher’s knife to the heart of the nation while ignoring all the evidence that lock downs and masks are largely ineffective, if not counter-productive in some instances. Yet, that’s exactly what Fauci is promoting.
Ok, I’ve decided. I don’t want Fauci’s politically motivated “science” anywhere near making decisions for my family. I believe most of the country agrees, as the appetite for more lock downs and useless mandates is clearly not there among a majority of the citizenry. That Joe Biden is promoting to make Fauci the top dog on this issue if he wins should absolutely seal the deal for Trump. I’m not saying it will, and I’m a natural cynic, but anyone voting for that should seriously reconsider everything about their political viewpoints. This country can not survive another months long lock down that does nothing but delay the inevitable. Europe is already making that mistake and they will once again pay the price. We should not follow suit.
There are an overwhelming amount of reasons to vote for Trump on Tuesday if you haven’t already voted. But there’s perhaps none bigger than the reality that Fauci will be cast aside into obscurity if the President is re-elected. Vote accordingly.

Shall we duel with banjos next time instead of links?
So I should have never quoted Fauxi.:)
However after reading (quickly) several of the studies re masks working and not working with viruses, we may never have a definitive answer to this question.
This was an interesting one. I could relate to it. I was in our Navy’s boot camp in Great lakes in the winter of 1961. There was a meningitis case/breakout in the barracks below mine. The care, followup then and later after boot, was incredible. Of course the Navy had control of us unlike patients today.
Fortunately most of us didn’t get the meninitis.
Thanks for your comments.
“Epidemiological and Statistical Data, US Navy, 1918,” Reprinted from the Annual Report of the Surgeon General, US Navy, (Washington, DC: Government Printing Office, 1919) 434.
Although the Surgeon General of the US Navy acknowledged that wearing masks by hospital staff was good practice, “the morbidity rate, nevertheless, was very high among those attending the sick,” and may only have prevented infection from a direct, close hit from a cough or sneeze of a patient.
The protocols followed in the contagious annex of the US Naval Hospital in Annapolis, MD, were sufficient to prevent cross-contamination of “cerebro-spinal fever” (aka meningitis), diphtheria, measles, mumps, scarlet fever, and German measles.
Not so with influenza. In fact, the infection rate of staff was as high in the high-protocol wards as in the improvised hospitals. In one improvised hospital at the Navy Training Station in Great Lakes, IL., the infection rate was higher among those corpsmen and volunteers, who wore masks than those who did not!
Yep, no direct mention of masks, but how did that bacteria get to the lungs?
I pray for Donald Trump’s continued health.

Fauci said we need to lockdown again and stay home because winter is here and the virus will spread because the cold weather will make people stay home.
The way it usually gets into lungs when masks aren’t worn.
Good idea, but give him a fair chance at living by allowing him to self-declare himself a bird, a vulture.

It's the only way to be sure.

Bacterial Pneumonia Caused Most Deaths in 1918 Influenza Pandemic Tuesday, August 19, 2008
The majority of deaths during the influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 were not caused by the influenza virus acting alone, report researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health. Instead, most victims succumbed to bacterial pneumonia following influenza virus infection. The pneumonia was caused when bacteria that normally inhabit the nose and throat invaded the lungs along a pathway created when the virus destroyed the cells that line the bronchial tubes and lungs.
Snip...
The work presents complementary lines of evidence from the fields of pathology and history of medicine to support this conclusion. “The weight of evidence we examined from both historical and modern analyses of the 1918 influenza pandemic favors a scenario in which viral damage followed by bacterial pneumonia led to the vast majority of deaths,” says co-author NIAID Director Anthony S. Fauci, M.D. “In essence, the virus landed the first blow while bacteria delivered the knockout punch.”

As the human race we’ve been at this for quite a while but
apparently not much has changed know-it-all’s
still keep screwing things up for the rest of us.

I’ve been saying for months here Fauci needs to be thrown off a bridge. I’m not kidding.
Faucie has never been anything different than what he is now. He is a scoundrel pandering to the highest bidder and his science has never, ever been any good at all. Why can’t people read his bio and figure this out.
I for onw will join a militant group to prevent his dream from becoming reality. We do NOT need him and never have.
Reminds me of a graduate student in my PhD group who decided he didn’t need to do research. He was not terribly bright but he was secretive. Nobody he seen him for the longest time when then he showed up with data he had perfect stories for obtaining. I have no idea who was supposed to be his committee chairman but in the end the PhD paper he produced was accepted. He gloated he had been successful and we were PO’s beyond imagining. I on’t know what happened to him but I am still hoping it was a very negative ending.
Firing Fauci is OK, but seriously the man needs to be prosecuted.
That’s the moment I had big red flags. Not for the reason you mentioned, exactly, but seeing the combo of “WTF?” and “Oh, sh!t” look on PDJT’s face. It seemed he realized he was so screwed when the goblin began to talk.
