His words speak for themselves, and Fauci knows this as well. That is why it doesn't matter that he demurred when asked to admit outright that the president lied in such a way that it led to the deaths of tens of thousands of American deaths and historical damage to the economy. Use your brain you pathetic fucking dumbass.
What advice did Fauci give to Trump that he didn't take? Trump was one of the first political leaders to actually act (China travel ban) in regards to Covid. And the loony left called him a racist and said it was perfectly fine to go out to eat and take part in parades. You are making an argument that Trump's rhetoric somehow caused the virus to be worse when each state/city had their own localized virus concerns and what happened there is directly up to the mayors and governors. Oh tell me again which states had the highest deaths per capita? Would that by New York? New Jersey?
