FYI a lotta people don't support or think any president(past or former) is the greatest or even good.
It is just not that clear cut my man.
Good men don't end up in that office.

Because Trump sent all of it to China on Feb 7th, and his first line of thought when it was seen that we needed it was to have the private sector develop/produce more, from corporations that he or his colleagues had financial interests in

This was SOS Mike Pompeo's tweet about it...
We have coordinated with U.S. organizations to transport more humanitarian relief to people in Wuhan. Personal protective equipment and other medical supplies donated by these organizations can help save lives in #China and help protect people from the #coronavirus. Secretary Pompeo on Twitter
America First my ass
Was it Fauci's job to make those decisions? I've found Fauci to be a middle of the road guy trying to do the best he can with an administration that is constantly spouting lies that he has to go back and "clarify" or defend in some diplomatic way. If you think Fauci is the blame for ANY of this, you're not paying attention.
And if you think the conservative web of fake news isn't real, I'm not sure what else anyone can say since you're just ignoring facts.
Does this mean the democrats are innocent etc? No! But that doesn't make everything else null and void either. I bet in a few days every Trump diehard will suddenly be anti Fauci because of the propaganda coming out. Oh he sent an email to Hillary!? BFD.

@Inside Job that's from the state department website
Bro, it's all propaganda against Trump. It's the deep state interns who maintains that site. Trump said we have the best most biggest supply of all time. Not so much before he took office, but now it's the biggest surplus...most abundant ever. ok?
did you have outrage at that point in time?
did you expect it to crush the economy at that time?
fine if you did...but hindsight is 20/20
and I don't think those supplies would be doing much for the infection rate or death count in this country...I could be wrong about that
at that time it seemed to be a humanitarian gesture didn't it?
Yuge supplies.
So which is it? Fauci negligent in his advice or a humanitarian helping out another country?
your putting words into my mouth
This is and will continue to be Information Wars...both "sides" of the "two party system" are despicable and spewing propaganda
Conspiracy theories both legit and false are countless on both sides of the table...NYT included
FYI I didn't vote trump
I didn't vote obama second term
I did vote obama first term until he showed his true colors
Not on a side here
nice thanks for link
hindsight is 20/20 it would seem...did you have a strong opinion about that when it occurred?
I think presidents have been asleep at the wheel and not keeping the countries best interests in mind for Decades...that is my "conspiracy theory"
They have been selling this country the fuck out for quite awhile.
I think the lack of a stockpile and lack of production of essential medical supplies and other essentials inside the borders is a complete and total failure of National Security.
This failure of National Security has been going on for quite some time it seems.
give an inch
they take a mile
It's not really a left/right thing. It's a brain/moron thing. Here is the article.
At a White House briefing on the coronavirus on March 20, President Trump called the State Department the “Deep State Department.” Behind him, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, dropped his head and rubbed his forehead.
Some thought Dr. Fauci was slighting the president, leading to a vitriolic online reaction. On Twitter and Facebook, a post that falsely claimed he was part of a secret cabal who opposed Mr. Trump was soon shared thousands of times, reaching roughly 1.5 million people.
A week later, Dr. Fauci — the administration’s most outspoken advocate of emergency measures to fight the coronavirus outbreak — has become the target of an online conspiracy theory that he is mobilizing to undermine the president.
That fanciful claim has spread across social media, fanned by a right-wing chorus of Mr. Trump’s supporters, even as Dr. Fauci has won a public following for his willingness to contradict the president and correct falsehoods and overly rosy pronouncements about containing the virus.
An analysis by The New York Times found over 70 accounts on Twitter that have promoted the hashtag #FauciFraud, with some tweeting as frequently as 795 times a day. The anti-Fauci sentiment is being reinforced by posts from Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, a conservative group; Bill Mitchell, host of the far-right online talk show “YourVoice America”; and other outspoken Trump supporters such as Shiva Ayyadurai, who has falsely claimed to be the inventor of email.
Many of the anti-Fauci posts, some of which pointed to a seven-year-old email that Dr. Fauci had sent praising Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of State, have been retweeted thousands of times. On YouTube, conspiracy-theory videos about Dr. Fauci have racked up hundreds of thousands of views in the past week. In private Facebook groups, posts disparaging him have also been shared hundreds of times and liked by thousands of people, according to the Times analysis.
One anti-Fauci tweet on Tuesday said, “Sorry liberals but we don’t trust Dr. Anthony Fauci.”
The torrent of falsehoods aimed at discrediting Dr. Fauci is another example of the hyperpartisan information flow that has driven a wedge into the way Americans think. For the past few years, far-right supporters of President Trump have regularly vilified those whom they see as opposing him. Even so, the campaign against Dr. Fauci stands out because he is one of the world’s leading infectious disease experts and a member of Mr. Trump’s virus task force, and it is unfolding as the government battles a pathogen that is rapidly spreading in the United States.
It is the latest twist in the ebb and flow of right-wing punditry that for weeks echoed Mr. Trump in minimizing the threat posed by the coronavirus and arguably undercut efforts to alert the public of its dangers. When the president took a more assertive posture against the outbreak, conservative outlets shifted, too — but now accuse Democrats and journalists of trying to use the pandemic to damage Mr. Trump politically.
“There seems to be a concerted effort on the part of Trump supporters to spread misinformation about the virus aggressively,” said Carl Bergstrom, a professor of biology at the University of Washington who has studied misinformation.
I hope this whole thing can show people that spending over 600 billion a year on a defense budget is bullshit when we have had such poor preparation and healthcare expenditures for so long. So now we have more nukes and spy planes then we can possibly ever use but the American people, way of life, and economy are being killed by a super flu.
none of that shit matters
this feels like a continuation of impeachment hate...a total waste of time
Personally I think Fauci is OK but I don't know much about him
If he wanted to call all the shots then he should have run for president
I am not hating on the guy....I am only hating on divide and conquer articles and propaganda
Hahaha an old dude I worked with just commented this.
Limited now in Morrisons , I had a case of Carling and 9 bottles , she took 7 bottles off me at the checkout and said you can only have 3 separate items ... So I could have 54 cans but not separate bottles wtf
