there was a thread today where he said he trusted Chinese Numbers. Strike 1
Trusted the WHO . Strike 2
And now this. Strike 3
All in a day
Deep State still trying to sink Trump.
Fauci probably bet the farm on Moderna stock.
He’s gotta make that good somehow!
I had a theory about why Fauci might be saying some of these things.
Seems fairly similar to Trump saying how good his relationship with Xi is, how they have such a help or whatever other BS...
Are they going out of their way to keep China docile? This seems like a very precarious situation that will probably spiral into war fairly easily.
Anyway, just a thought, Fauci been saying some odd things lately.
I’m not going to defend Fauci at all, but that story about trusting China numbers was a Fox story with a date of 19 February. Even the other day President Trump was talking about how great a relationship he personally had with Xi.
If we should not be trusting Chinese numbers (and I most certainly do not) we should also be cautious about taking public statements about China at face value. I think there may be more than a little bit of diplomacy going on (”diplomacy is the art of saying ‘nice doggy’ while you look for a big stick.”)
My working hypothesis is that China has us, for the moment, over a barrel. President Trump is trying to get us out of the predicament and then push back.
Now, Fauci’s talk of China’s numbers may have nothing to do with my hypothesis, but someday I may know one way or the other.
In closing, I have found these daily threads a great source of information and all who have been positively contributing have my thanks.
I would describe Fauci as a power hungry little man.
