Trump criticizes Fauci and says US in a 'good place' as Covid-19 cases top 3m

As the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the US reached 3m, and another daily record fell with more than 60,000 new cases, Donald Trump insisted the US was “in a good place” and admitted he “didn’t listen to my experts”.

US reaches 3m confirmed Covid-19 cases as Pence pushes for schools to reopen – live Read more The president also publicly attacked the US’s most senior non-political member of the White House coronavirus task force, Dr Anthony Fauci, who said earlier this week the US was still “knee deep in the first wave” of the pandemic.

More than 130,000 Americans have now died from Covid-19, the highest death toll in the world.

Speaking to former Fox News host Greta Van Susteren for a Gray TV interview to be broadcast on Sunday, Trump said: “I disagree with him. You know, Dr Fauci said ‘don’t wear masks’ and now he says ‘wear them’. And you know, he’s said numerous things: ‘Don’t close off China. Don’t ban China.’

“And I did it anyway. I sort of didn’t listen to my experts and I banned China.”

Wouldn’t you just LOVE to know who recommended farci to Trump in the first place? Was it Pence? Ivanka? Someone else? I’m sick of these deep staters getting into power positions, which allows them to commit plenty of damage, even in a short period of time

He ‘s been in the bureaucracy since the Cretaceous. Nobody had to recommend him, he was the default.

For Trump to fully cement his win in November, it would help to wage all out war on Fauci. Luckily, Fauci is busy shooting his mouth off all the time with mindless garbage. A clash should happen soon.

Jimmy Johnson (NASCAR) tested positive before the race on Saturday so wasn’t allowed to drive. He then tested negative twice within 24 hours and was allowed back in the pits.

Most likely it was a false positive. But I’m sure the CDC will count it as a positive result.

The test are meaningless. If you have had a cold you will probably test positive.

Fauci should be on trial for his Crimes Against Humanity which are multitude.

There is obviously considerable manipulation of data involved in this, the only question being, is there a master planner working behind the scenes making contacts, or do all the drones in the hive mind “get what to do” and mindlessly they comply?

Could be partly one and partly the other.

A question that seldom gets asked is this — how many people get sick from the power of suggestion or the worry? There is such a thing as auto-suggestion. On our side, there is probably such a thing as auto-immunity.

I am chugging vitamins and zinc to the extent that I may set off metal detectors for years afterwards. :)

Good stuff...closer than ever to herd immunity.

Still too long of a way to go for some people.

It’s the % of positives that indicates how widespread the virus is in an area. A couple of months ago Massachusetts was doing very little testing with 40% coming back positive. The testing has increased dramatically but only 2% are found to be positive now.

Imagine shutting down the country for a virus that’s so deadly that you have to be tested to know whether you have it or not.
