    And, as expected, Trump lashes out at Fauci.

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/19/politics/donald-trump-anthony-fauci-coronavirus/index.html

    I predicted this fallout many months ago. Of course, back then, I was accused to be afflicted with TDS.

    Now, we have 55,000 new cases a day, and Trump pretends we have turned the corner. This guy is becoming an clear and present danger to the nation.

    Really dont understand the concept of herd mentality. But I do understand that this virus isn't going to simply go "poof" and disappear from the world, or our world......just commonsense.

    Trump openly criticized Fauci as his campaign is currently airing a television ad featuring the doctor that implies Fauci endorsed Trump's handling of the pandemic.
    Fauci has disputed the ad, saying his words were taken out of context, and asked the campaign to take it down. But the ad was widely seen as an acknowledgment by the President's campaign staff that Fauci has credibility with voters who have rejected Trump's response.

    Yet that is exactly what Trump stated would happen to the virus during the spring.

    Of course he got it. He meets hundreds of people and is in front of thousands. Making matters worse most of those around him are mask crazy and we all know mask wearers get it the most often.

    Gosh. And now Trump cannot get it again. Another burn out of herd immunity. And instead of celebrating this, folks, like you are carrying the fear mongering to yet new heights. What is worth watching about the guy who derailed a cure for HIV/AIDS? His lasting legacy will have been to get folks to find a "management" method instead of actually creating a vaccine. This is what passes for morality in leftist eugenicist circles or which mr Fauci is certainly an acolyte.

    Good for him (if that turns out to be accurate)

    That does nothing for the millions his attitude would kill

    Completely false

    "We all know" nothing of the kind

    He got it because he didn't CARE...and there was LITTLE mask wearing (which is effectively the same as none) in the White House and no social distancing

    They relied almost entirely on "quick result tests" that Trump admitted to only taking occasionally

    He didnt lie. So your post is bad.

    We know so much now then when it started. So getting back to topic, we know now that this virus is out there amongst us. We cant rid it out of the atmosphere. It's highly contagious. Most people get over it. It's similar to the flu. Older people and those with underlying conditions are vulnerable. Which makes it much like the flu. It's not going away. It's not the end of the world. But if you are older or have underlying conditions you need to take extra precautions. All commonsense stuff.

    So let everyone get sick and if it kills the elderly and those with health conditions...tough ****?

    We can do all that and it will help especially those who are vulnerable. However eventually it will find us. Testing is not beneficial unless a person is showing symptoms btw. Too many false positives prior to that.

    Which millions are those? You sound absolutely breathless today. Your insistence to fear monger aside, what is your point? Trump literally cannot kill anyone. His administration has done a bang up job delivering the goods, and the support local and state folks needed, for which he has been appropriately lauded for. And yet here you are, hand wringing away. Desperate to swing a faulty 2x4 argument that has basically no merit at all. But, you're scared. We get it. Protect yourself.

    We all DON’t do it. Primarily because of Trump.
    And random testing and tracing is HOW pandemics are dealt with

    Trump is pushing herd immunity which will result in millions dead... primarily older people

    Many experts believed the warm weather would slow the spread just like there were some experts who believed hydroxychloroquine showed promise. Like I said, at least be honest. Trump didn't just make all that up.

    This is the correct angle to attack Trump and Fauci. They are both very much responsible for the anti-mask BS. Fauci more than Trump really because as a medical professional he knew he the benefits of ppe - unless he got his medical degree from Trump U.
