    Please don't let the propaganda campaign coming from our own free press influence you.

    Trump doesn't hate the military, and he did a decent job at slowing down the spread of the virus.

    So, in your opinion, Dr Fauci is a liar?

    From the OP source, it looks like Fauci may not be operating w/ full knowledge of Trumps lies-

    "Despite defending Trump, Fauci largely avoided commenting directly on the Woodward interviews on Wednesday. He conceded that “it may have happened,” but added that Woodward’s account revolves around discussions that didn’t involve him.

    “I’m a small frame in the big picture of what goes on,” Fauci said."

    Seems like he wasn't really willing to comment on the Woodward interviews.

    Maybe just trying not to get fired.
    It’s not opinion. We heard what he told Woodward and then we heard what he told us.

    Lol...he did nothing of the sort. He said that he didn't recall saying it, but he could have.
    But why are you trying to distract from trump's self-serving lies and colossal failure to lead during a crisis?

    Speaking to a largely mask-less crowd in Pennsylvania, Trump asked his supporters if they know "a man that likes a mask as much" as Biden.
    "It gives him a feeling of security," the President said. "If I was a psychiatrist, I'd say this guy has some big issues."

    he’s a troll, and his lies have left us with 180k dead and a republican congressional candidate who says masks are emasculating.

    The expert has spoken...I don't expect the left to actually listen to the expert....they haven't the entire time.

    If Trump isn't being portrayed as terrible, then it aint news. That's how the left operates nowadays. Granted, the right did the same **** to Obama, some of which was true and some false.

    You know most deaths were in Nursing homes and SIX governors ordered homes to take in positive patients? But hey, dont let that fact muck up your blame game. Orange man gotta take the blame, right?

    Franly the number of deaths would be drastically lower had Andy "Grandma Killer" Cuomo and the others had listened to the experts on this issue....they didn't...and so many died. They should be charged with manslaughter

    From yesterday


    Asked if he was frustrated by scenes showing supporters - and Trump himself - not wearing masks, Fauci said: 'Well, yes, it is. I've said that often.

    'We want to set an example because we know that when you do four or five typical kind of public health measures - masks, physical distance, avoiding crowds - those are the kind of things that turn around surges and also prevent us from getting surges.

    'So I certainly would like to see a universal wearing of masks.'

    He lied to us. If you don’t think that’s terrible then feel free to explain why.

    But these "consumers" of propaganda turn a completely BLIND eye to the fact that so many died as a result. Hey! Let's stuff positive cases into the most vulnerable possible population! Just parrot 180K deaths and blame the orange man. Squak squak bleat bleat!

    Yep, after the political Left went ogasmic over Bob Woodward's reveal it took Fauci all of about twenty seconds to debunk the Left's latest "Trump lied to us!" message. Unfortunately the Mainstream Media forgot -- cough! cough! -- to tell the nation that while they were promoting Woodward's lies and distortions as facts.

    That’s not what he said yesterday.
    “- masks, physical distance, avoiding crowds - those are the kind of things that turn around surges and also prevent us from getting surges.“

    So now after so very many of the political Left have openly worshiped Fauci as the end all and be all of authority on Covid-19 and messaging on it from the White House . . . now all of a sudden Fauci is a liar? Sweet!
