Any time that doofus says "People are saying" or I'm hearing" he is talking about himself. Trump is sick and tired of hearing about the Coronavirus because he doesn't want to be reminded daily of his failure to act.

"I dreamt that....." would be the most accurate

NO I thought they would get some of that sweet Government money, like Kodak. There main guy(forget his name and not bothering to look up) and Trump are friendly. Thought Trump would hook him up and Heal light has enough promise to get the hook up, unlike the scam that was pulled with Kodak. I do like Heal light, so will just wait longer to cash in as long as they don't go broke.

Trump's judgment has proven to be more trustworthy.

Fauci initially said that mask don't work, that they shouldn't ban travel from China, that people should use gloryholes... there's nothing scientific about it. He's a politically-motivated fraud, and should've been fired a long time ago.

Australian health experts have almost exactly spouted the same advice as Fauci and have handled corona better than any other country in terms of both health and economic cost.

How do you reconcile that?
 
I just read the data and make up my own mind. I don't get people who outsource their thinking to outside parties. As long as someone has a label of authority ("expert", politician, wealthy individual, etc) people just sit there and believe everything they say even when it doesn't make any sense. People don't have it in them to evaluate the merits of an argument, that's too hard for their little heads, they'd rather use the label of the person saying the information as a heuristic for whether the information is true or not. A big chunk of the population is just really dumb.

Here is an article from 1989. At that time, the US had over half of all the worldwide AIDS cases. Are you really going to argue that the US handled the AIDS epidemic well? The US was absurdly slow to act on aids. It took years of spread before the CDC even started issuing guidelines.

Are you really going to argue that this article singles out any of Fauci's decisions? Unless my cntrl+f function is busted, your article doesn't even include his name.

Conversely, here's an article that actually does:
After a certain number of protests, he looked out at NIH one day as ACT UP and other protesters were storming the gates, and he thought, "These guys, they dress crazy and they say terrible things, but they're mostly from New York like I am. And let me think about this for a minute: If I had a disease in which the result was that I would die no matter what, and the government was telling me, 'You can't try anything that might work under any circumstances,' I'd be ramming down the doors, too."

In 1989, Fauci and then-U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Louis W. Sullivan (right) announced results of studies showing that the antiviral drug AZT had delayed the onset of disease in some people with HIV.

So at that point, he decided to talk to these leaders more frequently, to go up to New York and meet with them, to go to San Francisco. And he came to realize ... they had a point. And even more importantly, they had some people who understood the system way better than anyone who worked for him. ...

Fauci, once he understood that the activists weren't saying, "Let's get rid of the whole system,' but, [rather], 'Let's open it up a bit so that we can have some relief while we press on to get the ultimate answer.' " He said, "Jesus, that makes perfect sense." And he proposed something called "parallel track," which was these sort of two systems — the old system and the new melded in. And that's what was adopted, and it worked.

There are only 15 people infected and within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.

I believe my president.

They're pretty smart for not voting for a communist regime.





"B-B-But Biden's a centrist!" Seriously shut up commie!

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/21/us/politics/biden-election-landslide.html

But Waleed Shahid, a spokesman for Justice Democrats, which seeks to add left-wing Democrats to Congress by challenging more moderate incumbents, said his group is at peace with Mr. Biden’s current positioning; the goal is to create a movement so vast that Mr. Biden has to shift his thinking. This election is the first step, he said.

“Lincoln was not an abolitionist, F.D.R. not a socialist or trade unionist, and L.B.J. not a civil rights activist,” Mr. Shahid said. “Three of the most transformative presidents never fully embraced the movements of their time, and yet the movements won because they organized and shaped public opinion.”

He added: “A major victory would help provide Democrats even more of a mandate to govern through the bold policy unseen since the era of F.D.R. and L.B.J.”

Holy shit! 22% of the people who's voted in the thread so far would actually have more faith in Trumps "integrity" and "knowledge" in regards to coronavirus than Fauci's? Is this the twilight zone or what the hell is going on??

You guys can't be serious.

The hardcore supporters are like a cult at this point. If he told them to jump off of Trump tower they'd be camping out to try to be first in line.
 
Obviously, Dr. Fauci. But that's not to say he's infallible and always right. Half the stuff going on around the country has not really been rational.

It's quite possibly the most embarrassing two minutes of speech ever to come out of the mouth of a United States president. Incredible that Drumpf lovers pretend he was joking.

yeah scary times we live in although most people supporting trump here are trolls
 
Obviously Fauci.
But
Doctors are always cautious party poopers.
Don't smoke
Don't drink to excess
Stop using glory holes at rest stops.
 
no 3rd option? I'd put the Joe Biden/Harris on 3rd choice
I trust none. Don't care how qualified Dr Fauci is since he's politicized, would rather listen to independent expert
 
Dr fraud already fucked up Aids and was totally unprepared for this epidemic despite having his whole career preparing for it.

It's not that i think Trump is an expert, it's that i would trust dr pepper over dr fraud

US also lead the world in Swine flu cases and deaths. The fact is, ever since Fauci has had his position, the US has consistently had one of the worst pandemic responses to every pandemic that hit us. He simply isn't that good at his job. We should fire him and poach one of Sweden's pandemic specialists.
