Don’t government employees at Fauci’s level serve at the pleasure of the president?

If he wanted to, I am sure he could have. And even if not firing him, he didn’t have to name him head of the Covid effort, put him at the podium in the White House. That’s on Trump.

Trump couldn’t fire Fauci without cause.

By the time he and we had it, it was too late.

“Let’s be real...Fauci is/was the head of one of the most exclusive medical organizations in our government. He was indeed the expert in this field.”

Fauci was and still is one of the most callous, corrupt, lying bastard in all of medicine and related fields. I give Trump and out because he didn’t know, but his lame excuses don’t hold water.

At the time nobody knew Fauci was a liar.
We know otherwise now.
But not back then.

“rump did everything he could to support an attack against this virus. No one knew what was happening...everyone was guessing...cuz that’s how Covid plays out...”

This is true, but Trump’s after the fact excuses and weak. Regardless how you feel about DeSantis, he is correct.

This is not DU!

Discuss the issues all you wish, BUT DO NOT MAKE IT PERSONAL!

Remember to use common courtesy when posting to FR. Leave off the insults and flames, name calling, etc.

We are conservatives. Be respectful to your debate adversary (fellow FReeper). For example, do not accuse them of being a “Putinista”, “commrade”, “murderer”, “baby-killer”, etc, just because he may have a difference of opinion whether or not the US government should be involved in a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked.

Likewise, things in the presidential primary are getting over-heated. We want to be sure we come out of this with a Republican president, house and senate. The only way we can accomplish that is to unify the Republican Party. We can’t destroy our own candidates. Whoever it is will need to pull us ALL together. Keep the ultimate goal in sight - Freedom! We are not here to fight each other. We are here as allies to fight for God, family, country, and FREEDOM! As William Wallace said in Brave Heart, “Unite the clans!”.

Your personal favorite may be Ron DeSantis, mine happens to be President Trump. But if DeSantis receives the nomination, I’ll support him, as I hope most other FReepers will.

Incidentally, we are getting way too much profanity. This is NOT DU, this is NOT CNN - (in deep voice) this IS FR!

Finally, if someone says STOP, then STOP! If someone asks you to take them off your ping list, then take them off! If someone asks you to stop posting to them, the adult and polite thing to do is to accommodate them.

Thank you all very much, and God bless you.

So, Trump not knowing then what he knows now makes it okay for Trump to now lie?

Get ready for the Magadorians to show up and tell you the 4D Chess player who will sink the Deep State was a helpless pawn and can’t be blamed for anything he did as President.

Pay attention The entire world was in favor of Covid destroying the US.

Trump was never going to be allowed to get back into the White House. Covid was a tool. No one gives a crap what happened between Fauci and trump Fauci worked for them trump worked for the us citizens. They won that round.

DeSantis refused to force long-time corrupt Broward County Election Supervisor Brenda Snipes to walk away without her pension intact, but instead chose to let her re-submit her original resignation, after being convicted of violating State and Federal laws for destroying ballots before the expiration date. Those ballots were evidence in a Federal lawsuit against her office, pertaining to a Congressional race.

Governor Rick Scott removed her from office in the aftermath of the 2018 election. She initially submitted her resignation, but then took it back, and decided to go to court. The Judge denied her a hearing about the suspension, and left her future in the hands of the new, incoming Governor DeSantis. So "softballs" DeSantis let a known convicted election fraudster walk off with her pension and benefits intact.

Didn't you guys get the memo. Your supposed to be pushing Nicky H. as we all know da Meatball is done.
LOL! pathetic.
By the way, I have no problem as to how Trump, and his administration handled the pandemic. A true leader, as opposed to folks like you that would have shat your pants in the first 48 hours. Clowns.
The Man alone in the arena vs the Fat slob yelling in the stands. Again. Pathetic. Probably Lyin' Ted fans still butt-hurt over 2016. :)

You can’t fire a civil servant.

You can for gross incompetence and/or misconduct. And Trump not only didn't fire Dr Demento here, he gave the guy a medal.

“neverbackdown super pac still has about $100 million left, and desanctimonious is still campaigning...

With the grift, jeff roe should get about $50 million or more of that, with the rest distributed between cortez, pushaw and the rest”

Wrong thread. This is about what DS pointed out about Trump.

It would be very interesting to go back to March April May June and July of 2020, here on Free Republic, and see who was saying what about Fauci and the pandemic then.

If Trump had dismissed Fauci in July of 2020 he would have been impeached. He would have been charged with a gross dereliction of Duty during a once-in-a-lifetime health emergency.

We know now the doctor fauci is a horse’s blank, but we did not know it then.
