Trump Reveals Plan to 'Fire Fauci' After Election

During his last rally of a busy Sunday before Election Day in Opa-Locka, Florida, President Donald Trump made a stunning admission to supporters after a “Fire Fauci” chant broke out among the crowd.

“Don’t tell anybody, but let me wait until a little bit after the election,” Trump said as his fans cheered. “I appreciate the advice,” he added before going to to repeat the smear that his own administration’s top infectious disease expert has been “wrong on a lot” about the COVID-19 pandemic.

It’s unclear how difficult it would be for Trump to fire Dr. Anthony Fauci, who as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is a career civil servant and not a political appointee.

Earlier this month, when The Daily Beast asked Fauci if he planned on leaving his role with the White House task force over Trump campaign ads that took his comments out of context, he replied, “Not a chance. Not in my wildest freakin’ dreams did I ever think about quitting.”

1. He lies about everything.

There's really no reason to believe this is anything but more Fauci bashing.

If he fires him, he can't blame him for everything anymore.

2. Yup, it's only a matter of time.

Firstly, Fauci's approval rating dwarfs Trump's. Can't have that.

Secondly, Fauci was one of Time Magazine's "100 Most Infleuntial People". AND he was on the cover. Really, really, reeeeeeaaallly can't have that.

3. Bah...does he look to you like a man with a "plan"?

He’s just a rabid dog chasing cars. He wouldn’t know what to do if he ever caught one...

5. oh, that's okay . . . Fauci can take a well-deserved break, then Joe can re-hire him . . .

and in the interim before January 20, the good doctor will at last be freed up to tell us exactly what he thinks, in no uncertain terms . . . should be interesting . . .

6. That's OK -- We have a plan to fire Trump . . . later today.

Then soon after that, we can watch him fake-swagger his fat ass
all the way to prison in NY state.

7. After the election???

After the election, he will be sitting in front of a mirror, poking at it aggressively and snarling "You're fired!" Over and over again.

I'm sure that his experience on his absolutely terrible reality show has conflated with the rush of consequential firings he has been able to order during his even more terrible tenure in the WH. He may well be in that - for him - halcyon state for some time to come.
