Donald Trump just sided with Jared Kushner over Dr. Fauci
Minutes from now, Donald Trump will hold what could be one of the worst press conferences of all time. The fact that Donald Trump has invited Attorney General Bill Barr to participate is enough to make anyone’s stomach turn. Now we’re learning that Trump thinks he no longer needs to listen to Dr. Fauci’s expertise because – get this – Jared Kushner is giving him advice he likes better.
This is according to a surreal new report from Vanity Fair this evening, which reveals that Donald Trump is now “frustrated” at Dr. Fauci for daring to give out accurate information, as opposed to the pie-in-the-sky promises that Trump likes to make. More worryingly, the article says that Jared Kushner has been telling Trump about “conspiracy theories” involving experimental coronavirus treatments, and Trump is lapping it up like the desperate fool that he is.
So where does this leave things? We’ll see if Donald Trump even allows Dr. Fauci to participate in today’s press conference. We’ll also see whether Trump starts babbling about the lunatic nonsense he’s hearing from Jared Kushner. Either way, this just keeps getting more awful. These press conferences should not be aired live until they can be fact checked.
