re: Can anyone justify why Trump gave the medal to Faucci in 2021?

So blaming a President for fricking up the most consequential decision of his presidency and not changing course for 10 months is unfair? You guys are full of grace obviously. Maybe we should forgive Biden too? Anyone that full of grace? Or is it differen(T)?

about decisions Trump made regarding Covid is really really unfair

Yeah!! trump shouldn't be judged off of his decisions or how he led. It's so unfair!1!1!!

It's also hard to understand given his statement about Fauci a month later.

“Based on their interviews, I felt it was time to speak up about Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx, two self-promoters trying to reinvent history to cover for their bad instincts and faulty recommendations, which I fortunately almost always overturned,” Trump said in the emailed statement.

“He fought me so hard because he wanted to keep our country open to countries like China. I closed it against his strong recommendation, which saved many lives. Dr. Fauci also said we didn’t need to wear masks, then a few months later he said we needed to wear masks, and now, two or three of them. Fauci spent U.S. money on the Wuhan lab in China—and we now know how that worked out,” Trump said.

They were terrible the entire time and Trump was well aware but that didn't stop him from giving Fauci and Birx medals.
