President Trump grilled Anthony Fauci last night in his speech at the North Carolina GOP convention dinner.
As always President Trump didn’t sugar coat anything but instead exposed Anthony Fauci by saying he’s a “great promotor” but not a “great doctor”.
Trump also called out Fauci for being wrong about the origin of the virus and was quoted saying “Dr. Fauci … perhaps has never been more wrong than when he denied the virus and where it came from”.
He didn’t stop there and continued to slam the disgraced doctor and mentioned that he generally didn’t listen to Fauci’s advice and said when Fauci told him it wasn’t a good idea to close America’s borders to China, Trump said he closed the border anyway.
Good thing President Trump didn’t listen to Fauci!

The Washington Times got the scoop check out what they had to share:
In his first political speech since last winter, Mr. Trump again teased a possible candidacy in 2024, calling the next presidential election “a year I look very much forward to.”
He also attacked President Biden as beholden to Democrats’ cancel culture and weak against communist China. Mr. Trump ridiculed the administration and Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, for belatedly acknowledging the possibility that the COVID-19 virus originated in a government laboratory in China.
“The media, the Democrats and the so-called experts are now finally admitting what I first said 13 months ago — the evidence demonstrates that the virus originated in a Chinese government lab,” Mr. Trump said. “Dr. Fauci … perhaps has never been more wrong than when he denied the virus and where it came from.”
The former president said the U.S. and the community of nations should demand “reparations” of at least $13 trillion from Beijing to compensate them for the damage inflicted by the virus.
Trump just roasted Fauci:
"He's a great promoter. Not a great doctor, but he's a hell of a promoter. He likes television more than any politician in this room… But he's been wrong on almost every issue." pic.twitter.com/8qWazfKu6u

Reuters covered the story too:
President Donald Trump on Saturday sharply attacked U.S. infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, demanded reparations from China and denounced an investigation into his finances in a speech in North Carolina.
Speaking in Greenville, North Carolina, at the state’s Republican Party convention, Trump joined a chorus of Republican politicians who are criticizing Fauci for asking Americans to wear masks to guard against the virus and who at times has been skeptical of a theory that the virus escaped from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.
Trump called Fauci “not a great doctor but a great promoter” for his frequent television appearances. “But he’s been wrong on almost every issue and he was wrong on Wuhan and the lab also,” Trump said.
If you have the time I highly recommend you watch President Trump’s speech last night in North Carolina.
