The nation's top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, is the leading voice on this pandemic. He estimates we could experience between 100,000-200,000 deaths. His statements are invariably clear, direct, unemotional.
In a political sense, he is the best thing the Trump administration has going for it during this heath crisis and the collapse of our economy.
So it is ironic that the far right wing of Trump's base is attacking Fauci for undermining the Trump presidency. They are doing this because Fauci corrects Trump when he makes inaccurate statements about the pandemic.
In fact, Fauci is a national hero and will be recognized as such by historians. Those who attack him during this national emergency shame themselves.
