I have a feeling you post is 100% right.
Most of the public now knows we, including Trump, were all lied to. It would have been impossible for Trump to have gone against the tide.
Thank you.
IMO it was a tide like a tsunami. If he had fired Fauci or Birx or both the MSM would have made them martyrs and their media darling status would have increased exponentially. And they would have loved to play the part.
Aside from being removed from office, which means he would have been barred from holding any public office again, imagine the other consequences of having the media turn up the hysteria 100 fold in order to support their narrative.
They couldn’t have just removed a popular President without setting their reasoning for it in concrete. All the mandates, censorship and propaganda would have been far far more draconian than it was.
