And he just agreed to stay on with the Biden administration.

Bravo!

New York Times:

President-elect Joe Biden asked Dr. Anthony Fauci to remain in his role as the country’s top infectious disease expert and be his chief medical adviser. Fauci said on Friday he accepted the offer "right on the spot."

Dave Miller said...

Add to the Fauci threats equal worry to the GOP election officials in GA and the Governor in AZ who simply told the truth and the Governor in Michigan who dared to expect ppl to follow the CDC guidelines.

Nowhere, in any forum has President Trump come out and simply said threats of violence towards government officials, even though you may disagree with them, is wrong, immoral and if laws were broken, ppl who do so will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Why not?

Why is he fundamentally unable to do so?

Why is he simply unable to use the power of the presidency to turn down the volume in the United States, not because it will be good for him, but because it will be good for the nation?

Why can't he just say threats to Dr Fauci and other health officials strike at the very ability of our nation to get past and beat Covid?

In the end, Donald Trump is proving all of us lefties and others who doubted his ability to pivot after the 2016 campaign into a presidential person, a man desirous of governing the entire country for all the people in the United States of America.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Dave asked: "Why is he fundamentally unable to do so?"

Trump has a personality disorder, a mental incapacity to think of anyone but himself or anything that doesn't promote him. Period. Plus, he's a lifelong liar, cheat, and fraud.

70+ million Americans saw this in 2016, and yet they thought it would be a great idea to have a man with no experience in government, no knowledge of our Constitution (or any other laws), and no core values, except money, money, and power to get more money.

Now those Trumpublicans can look at the devastated landscape of America (almost 250,000 dead!) and ask themselves "What the hell were we thinking?!"

However, they don't do introspection. And that's why he's still a malign force in America.

Threats and violence are the first resort of ignorant thugs and fanatics against those who exemplify science and reason. It's been that way since Hypatia and Galileo.

Fauci will continue working to save their lives, nevertheless.

All one has to do is look at the rates of Covid infections and deaths in the states that followed Trump in his anti-science, anti-Fauci madness. Iowa and South Dakota are among the worst hit.

Ms Shaw, New York and California have been one of the strictest states in distancing and masks yet they are having a huge spikes, why is that. We don't know more than we know about the virus and after almost a year of the virus it is tough to blame trump for the idiots who gather in groups without following guidelines. You can outlaw some things but stupidity is not illegal.
We only have six weeks to go then joey has a plan so we will be fine.

Skud, my daughter lives in Orange County, Calif., otherwise known as Reagan Country. It’s now Trumpian and my daughter reports that there are very few mask wearers and people who practice social distancing, and she knows lots of people who eat out, and attend gatherings and indoor parties. In any given state, blue and red, there are selfish stupid Americans who believe consideration for their fellow Americans’ safety and lives is somehow taking away their “freedom.”

Those are ignorant, stupid, selfish, immature, jackasses who would never have been able to survive the REAL sacrifices Americans had to make here in this country during World War II. My parents and older siblings lived through those years, and from what they told me, those sacrifices were way harder than putting on a damn mask to protect themselves and their fellow Americans.

The Americans who protest mask wearing and edicts against large indoor gatherings are spoiled little tantrum-throwing crybabies who know nothing about “freedom.”

I agree with you that once President-elect Joe Biden is in the Oval Office, we’ll finally have a grown-up who knows what the hell he’s doing and who gives a damn about the health and safety of the American people.

Ed said...

To not admit the massive fraud and illegal voting practices, chain of custody issues, poll watcher suppression, is to be either incredibly biased, uncaring or stupid.
If you think the amount of fraud seen doesn't taint the results, mix some fecal matter in your kool-aid. You'll never taste it.

Shaw Kenawe said...

To “Ed”

Not even Trump’s lawyers IN COURT claim there was fraud. Trump has lost, what?, 40 times in court?

Smarter trolls, please.

Dave Miller said...

Ed, like the rest of the crowd claiming fraud are willfully ignorant. As you pointed out Shaw, as we all have numerous to the deaf ears and closed brains, not even Trump's lawyers are alleging fraud.

But hey, keep it up. It's always fun to watch you, the Trumpistas and Rudy hitting well below the "Mendoza line".

Dave Miller said...

Skud... you are correct in that we are still learning about this virus. It's nasty. All the more reason ppl should exercise real caution.

I hear this freedom stuff, even though I don't agree. So how about this...

Live your freedoms all you want. The average cost of caring for someone that must go to the hospital run between 50-80K. You flaunt the rules, don't social distance, don't wear a mask, fine. You pay upfront. You can't pay, tough.

You made a choice. Now you're free to die.

Because we know that all these folks screaming for their freedoms expect me to pay their bill and cover their stupid choices.

Just sayin...

I feel bad for Trump. He lost the most rigged election ever; rigged only in swing states; rigged only presidential race; rigged under oversight of @gop; Then lost 41 of 42 court cases, rigged by judiciary; a judiciary stacked with Rs by @senatemajldr & co. So unlucky🙄

Ray said...

So Biden won the popular vote, the electoral vote, 4 recounts, 30 lawsuits, 7 judicial rulings, and Republicans still won’t admit defeat.

Remember this everyday of your life; Republicans are cowards.

Cowards.

Craig said...

I think Ed is Mr. Ed, the talking horses ass and misfit 2nd class on the mothership. Even Mz. Z is getting annoyed with his anti mask, election truther nonsense. Ed, if you're lurking, send as much money as you can to Trump's fraud fund. Even 1 in a 1,000,000,000 chance is still a chance. I'm sure every cent you send Trump will be spent fighting for you and America.

Its not over til its over

Mike said...

This is why I don't think I could handle fame. You attract every nut job on the internet.

Ed said...

The Dominion machine was tested by entering an EQUAL AMOUNT. Of Trump and Biden ballots and the results gave Biden a 26 ballot lead.
Those conducting the test were so shocked that they ran the same ballots again. The same results appeared.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Voice of Reason, It’s over. Trump’s just making a fool of himself and his cultists. And he’s attempting to overthrow a legal election. This country should never let him near the levers of power again. He’s a danger to American democracy. We sane Americans are ecstatic to see him gone on January 20 th!

Shaw Kenawe said...

Ed, give it up. Your allegations have no merit. There was no fraud. Trump’s own lawyers have said so, the Trump-appointed cyber head said so, and Trump-appointed conservative AG, Barr, said so. You’re listening to and believing crackpots. For the sake of your mental health, give it up.

BIDEN WON; TRUMP LOST — BIGLY!

skudrunner said...

Ms Shaw, I have a daughter who lives in Northern CA and she is paranoid about covid so I know what your kids are saying. Funny that Orange County supports the orange man.

The tolerant left has no acceptance of anyone who supported trump for any reason. What they are saying is almost 50% of the voting population is so far beneath them that all we can do is call them cowards. Some of us support wearing masks and staying 6 feet apart, 10 if the other person is a democrat (just joking). Democrats have become the party of the wealthy and elite and anyone who is not a democrat is just stupid and probably works with their hands which is disgusting.

biden won and seems to have adopted the trump agenda except for the insults. America first, open schools but so far china is exempt from criticism which indicates he will return to let them do what they want and we will just sit back and say nothing.

Ed said...

Crazy, Senile, Gropin Biden AINT Gonna be The President.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Ed, get help! Your delusions are out of control!

Joe Biden is President-elect and will be the 46th president of the United States on January 20, 2021.

The "you lost, get over it" dipshits from 2016 are never going to get over 2020, are they.
