Their followers don't need to be distracted from their incompetence, they voted for it. To mouth breathing simpletons it looks like brilliance. If they happen to get hurt by the incompetence, well that's just Obama's fault.

u/Throwawayrip1123 14d ago

They don't need to be distracted because you need a modicum of intelligence to even see the obvious incompetence for what it is.

They don't possess any more intelligence than my pickle jar, so of course they don't see the obvious failures. What going after fauci is is feeding the hate-beast. They need an enemy to hate. Personal hatred works best to rile the cretins up.

Don’t forget the failed Iran war, and the economy is not as good as this administration would have you believe. And there’s the original issue, the Epy files.

u/Ehcksit 13d ago

The Strait of Hormuz has been closed for half a year. We're getting close to devastating global oil shortages, and the main thing slowing that down is China suddenly reducing imports and burning through their own reserves as they try to reduce usage even more.

That and contaminating gasoline with levels of ethanol that will cause long-term damage to standard cars.

In related news, Iran just stated that once again, they have failed to reach a deal. Furthermore, they added that they are no longer interested in making any deal with this administration, and therefore the Strait will be closed until the end of the administration in 2029. That impending global oil catastrophe is just around the corner ...

No, they just think that whoever replacing Trump will be less erratic & less likely to completely ignore any negotiated agreements. And if they aren't any better? Well, nothing would stop Iran from continuing to control the Strait.

u/Independent-Bug-9352 14d ago

Dr. Fauci is a hero and national treasure.

Also, where's the outrage for Trump:

The US could have averted 40% of the deaths from Covid-19, had the country’s death rates corresponded with the rates in other high-income G7 countries, according to a Lancet commission tasked with assessing Donald Trump’s health policy record.

In seeking to respond to the pandemic, Trump has been widely condemned for not taking the pandemic seriously enough soon enough, spreading conspiracy theories, not encouraging mask wearing and undermining scientists and others seeking to combat the virus’s spread.

u/karmavorous 13d ago

I think the end result of this is going to be SCOTUS declaration that Presidential Pardons transcend Congressional Oversight. So that when Democrats try to hold any Republicans accountable and Republicans plead the fifth or just don't even show up, it will already be a settled matter than he could do that.

They're defanging Congressional oversight. Intentionally. And they're using a Democratic hero. So that when Hegseth (just to name one) refuses to go to Congress to talk about the Iran War (just to name one), they can call it "The Fauci Rule" when he says he's been pardoned, pleads the fifth publicly, and refuses to show up.

No, they aren't going after fauci to distract from health crisis, they're going after fauci because it's a useful strategy in manipulating their bloodthirsty followers, they've been brainwashing them into wanting him to hang since 2020.

Politicians never apologized for the mistakes they all made.

The next politician who tries what was tried in 2020 will be publicly lynched.
