Fauci became a celebrity due to his TV appearances. He joined the ranks of famous people who know nothing, but go on TV to tell everyone about it.
Fauci became an alternative to Trump. Think about it. The left politicized Covid to hurt Trump through their media minions. In order to do that, you needed a foil to Trump. Somebody “he did not listen to” so they made Fauci into that person.
Remember all the articles and pundits saying Fauci is the one we should listen to and “Trump does not listen to him”?
They built him up on a pedestal. He might want to look towards Cuomo to see his future...... Just saying. He served his purpose, but now the data does not fit, his flip-flops are magnified, and his emails showing collusion with the CCP and WHO as well as funding decisions are suddenly “indefensible”.
Reminds me of when that airhead actress Meryl Streep testified before Congress about a growth regulator used by apple farmers. Even though she didn't know a thing about how the chemical worked, the drive-by media swooned over her testimony.
