Most rational Trumpers can admit that he’s an absolutely shitty judge of character and has made some of the shittiest hires ever. Therefore, anyone with a brain will scrutinize anyone he supports. Just remember, he employed Fauci and supported Dr Oz. That should tell you everything you need to know.

What I love about the people who complain about Trump regarding his hires isthey fail to ralize he had notEVER held a political office of any kind.

No wonder they are so scared of Trump in 2024. Heck, I switched from the GOP to No Party as soon as both McConnell and McCarthy had sealed their leadership positions.

But I will vote for Trump 2024, no friggin' doubt about it!!

Fauci is/was a federal government employee since the 1980s. It’s a civil servant position.

The fact that people think this means something should tell you everything you need to know about them.

Trump:
quote:

“A lot of people ask me that question. I didn’t, right, because if you fire him you’re going to have a firestorm on the left again, as usual. I didn’t listen to him if you think about it. He wanted to keep our country open to China and I closed it. He wanted to keep our country open to Europe and I closed it. He talked about masks being no-good. While I’m not a huge maks believer but I think they have some purpose. Now he is a radical masker…I think I did the right thing because we would have had a firestorm. Less of a firestorm now if he was fired because he has been wrong so often.”


CNN:
quote:

Under federal law, Trump doesn’t have the power to directly fire Fauci, a career civil servant, and remove him from government. And while Trump could try ordering his political appointees to dismiss the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Fauci could appeal – a time-consuming process. The President does, however, have the power to sideline Fauci, keeping him away from press briefings and media interviews – as has happened in recent weeks, though Fauci has proven adept at pushing his message through different channels.


Democrats also threatened to impeach Trump if he fired Fauci.

Stop repeating "smart-sounding" ideas other people repeated from other people who repeated them. Things are not so one-dimensional.

Pretty sure Fauci was already employed in his position for many years before Trump came along.
