Tucker Carlson attacks Anthony Fauci before claiming “plenty of doctors” want lockdown to end

“This is just buffoon level stuff at this point. And we’re not doing this to mock the guy, you know? Anyone that talks as much as Anthony Fauci does on television, we can tell you first hand, is apt to say some stupid things. The point is... is this the guy into whom you want to vest all of your trust? Is this the guy you want to chart the future of the country? Maybe not! This is a very serious matter. The decision we are making right now. Tony Fauci has not been elected to anything. He’s had the same job for nearly 40 years. That means the majority of American voters never even indirectly picked him for the role he has now. This is not the result of any kind of democratic process at work at all. Yet in the last four month Fauci has become one of the most powerful people in the world. And some, particularly in our media and in our Democratic establishment are clamouring to give out doctor even more power. why? some people seem to think he should be dict for the dura of this crisis. That insanity. Facusi like every other human being is flaw he say thing that are wise he says thing that are profoundly silly. He’s not and no one is the one person who should be in charge? When it comes to making long term health recommendations this guy Fauci maybe even more off base than your average epidemiologist! Plenty of doctors, by the way, think it’s time for most, even, all, of the country to cautiously reopen. And they have a voice in this too-they deserve one. But in the end no appointed doctor should make the call on what our federal policy is—we elect leaders for that because we are supposed to be in charge of the country. Remember NBC?”
