Trump speaks to hope.
______________________
That's nice but is a lot too simple.
Are you saying Trump disregards facts?
Are you saying Fauci doesn't continually preen for attention?
Nope, to both questions...
Fauci maintained that, “I don’t disagree on the substance” - but then added: “It is expressed in a way that I would not express it
Whatever the complications are with Fauci, trying to reassure people and speaking in a strictly scientific way are going to conflict.
There are real problems with Fauci's attitude, but the conflict would be there whoever held his job.
Does it have to be so public? That's also a complicated question since a lot of Fauci's personal characteristics are shared by many other scientists and bureaucrats.
