The Trump campaign has released an ad featuring Dr. Anthony Fauci praising the president’s leadership but Fauci argued, 'The comments attributed to me without my permission in the GOP campaign ad were taken out of context'
"In my five decades of public service, I have never publicly endorsed political candidates," Fauci said after the Trump campaign released an ad featuring Fauci praising the president’s leadership.
In a memo released Saturday night by the White House, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Sean Conley said Trump met the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria for safely discontinuing isolation and that by"currently recognized standards" he was no longer considered a transmission risk. The memo did not declare Trump had tested negative for the virus.
Campaign officials have signaled that Trump will be traveling nearly every day the rest of the campaign, and sometimes making more than one stop, an aggressive schedule for a 74-year-old who was hospitalized just days ago. Tim Murtaugh, Trump campaign communications director, responded by saying that"these are Dr. Fauci’s own words" and said they were praising the administration’s response.
