“...let’s be clear Fauci said the virus is spread at protests...”
You need to review what Fauci said again for facts. He said it was spread by crowds but absolutely refused to say it was spread by protests. The word protest would not emerge from his mouth.
He scrupulously avoided saying it was spread at protests. A political answer from a political animal.
Though we can test the theory.
Let’s all show up in D.C. for a big Fire Fauci protest and see if he accuses us of spreading the virus.
