Trump's Retweet Suggests He's Considering Firing Fauci Amid Coronavirus Flak
-- Dr. Fauci just addressed the reported head-butting that's supposedly been going on behind closed doors with himself and the President's administration, and the guy sure seemed to be trying to put out the fire with a clear and concise timeline of events.
He DID clarify something he recently said in the press regarding some"pushback" he claimed was taking place among cabinet officials when Fauci and co. first recommended closing up shop for an extended period of time. DF says he used a poor choice of words, and insists Trump officials only raised concerns about ramifications of such an action -- like crippling the economy, job loss, etc.
Trump's promotion of a #FireFauci tweet comes in response to the infectious disease expert's CNN interview Sunday ... where he said the U.S might have prevented deaths if it had put mitigation efforts in place in February, instead of mid-March."what goes into those decisions is complicated" -- but the retweet seems to indicate the Prez took it as one.
The President added ..."Sorry Fake News, it’s all on tape. I banned China long before people spoke up."
