Americans understand “three strikes, you’re out”. They also understand, in the face of dark medical diagnoses and treatment regimens and predictions, it’s wise to ‘get a second opinion’.
It’s time for President Trump to understand what Americans understand, and apply it to Dr. Anthony Fauci and the handling of the pandemic. It’s not complicated.
Strike one: Dr. Fauci has twice affirmed his sincere personal love for Hillary Clinton in emails to Clinton aides. The second of these followed Clinton’s testimony at the Congressional hearings on the Benghazi debacle—the setting for Clinton’s “What difference, at this point, does it make?” answer to questions about the phony Obama/Clinton Benghazi cover story of an anti-Muslim video inciting the violence that ended with four dead Americans. Dr. Fauci proclaimed that Hillary ‘hit it right out of the park’ with her testimony.
As we’ve noted before, Dr. Fauci has the right to love Hillary Clinton all he wants (though it’s more than a little weird). He has the right to his opinion that her Congressional testimony hit it right out of the park.
But here’s the deal: no one with a brain and a conscience accepts or excuses the Obama/Clinton Benghazi cover story that the Benghazi debacle was caused by reaction to an anti-Muslim video. No one. No. One. It was a brazen, outrageous lie, and it was purposefully and officially and visibly told and repeated by Obama advisor Susan Rice (among others) to the American public in order to prevent criticism of Obama in the runup to the 2012 presidential election. It is not excusable under the category of “no big deal, all politicians lie”; it was unconscionable in its deliberate deceit and its coverup of reckless if not criminal behavior by many in the Obama administration. Americans died as a result of their behavior.
Dr. Fauci’s ‘take’ in this context is like that of an ideological cult follower of Hillary Clinton who steadfastly maintains that his cult leader can do no wrong. It’s the take of someone with a brain but no apparent conscience. In ‘Strike Three’ below, this disturbing aspect of Fauci’s character pops up again.
Again, Fauci has the right to his worldview; he even has the right to be a cult follower of Hillary Clinton. But here’s the conclusion that President Trump ought to reach: this is not a man whose judgment on anything ought to be treated as beyond question, and certainly not on the larger moral dimensions of the pandemic containment recommendations he is making. Strike one.
Strike Two: Dr. Fauci delivered a speech at Georgetown University on January 10, 2017—after Trump was elected but before he was even inaugurated—in which Fauci point-blank says “there will be a surprise outbreak” of disease during the Trump administration.
