Fauci: ‘Bizarre’ White House Behavior Only Hurts the President
Atlantic ^ | July 15 2020 | PETER NICHOLASED YONG

Anthony Fauci isn’t about to quit, despite the White House’s clumsy attempts to stain his public image. More so now than at any other point in their uneasy partnership, it seems that if President Donald Trump wants to be rid of Fauci, he’ll need to fire him. In recent days especially, the White House has stepped up efforts to discredit Fauci, a move he describes as “bizarre.”

“Ultimately, it hurts the president to do that,” Fauci told The Atlantic in a series of interviews this week. “When the staff lets out something like that and the entire scientific and press community push back on it, it ultimately hurts the president.”

He described the White House attacks against him as “nonsense” and “completely wrong.” He also seemed dismayed that they are coming at a time when COVID-19 is surging across the country, deaths are once again rising, and Americans remain deeply confused about how to keep themselves and their loved ones safe.

Fauxcy is NOT an expert in Medicine/Public Health.

He is an expert media and H->! lover.

“it seems that if President Donald Trump wants to be rid of Fauci, he’ll need to fire him.”

That’s what he should do rather than getting himself bogged down from now to November in attacking Fauci. Waste of time and energy.

Notice how the author makes it sound like it’s Trumps behavior Fauci was talking about. Only well into the article do they mention that it was Navarros op-ed they were referring to.

“the entire scientific and press community”

I didn’t realized that scientists and the press were a single community.

A near 80 year old swamp bureaucrat lecturing POTUS. Insane. Time to reorganize NIH and eliminate Fauci’s position. He can retire with dignity that way.

There is a reason Dr Doom loves to talk to the leftists at The Atlantic and CNN.

Just do little things to get him talking. Doesn’t take much watching him to realize what an egotistical little creep he is. . . and he has huge ethical issues promoting remdesivir when he has a stake in the company that developed it. . . not to mention his panning the HCO/Z-pack/zinc treatment that so many have shown to work very well when used early.

Fauci is the same as Comey. A bureaucrat with a superiority complex and no moral compass.

When a political figure like Fauci relies on the press response as justification, you know the political figure has gone completely over to the dark side.
