wingnut cult because they think Fauci isn't in the cult. Fauci isn't the one who's polarizing, that would be cult leader trump, and junk headlines like this one from WSJ.

It wasn't bad.

Then it was claimed it was a white-supremacist symbol. Not claimed by a white supremacist, of course. But it came to be accepted as one by many who weren't white supremacists.

Then white supremacists picked it up to mock those who thought it was a real symbol.

Finally, some white supremacists did think it was an "in" symbol and adopted it for real.

Fauci wasn't anti-Trump.

It was claimed he was anti-Trump. Just look at his body language. Intonation. Why, he's a good guy, trying to undermine Trump.

They ignore Fauci. Obviously he's lying to keep his job when he says certain things. wink-wink, nudge-nudge.

Those who hadn't thought he was anti-Trump hear that he's *really* anti-Trump and then come to think he's anti-Trump.

Fauci needs security. He didn't for a while. Now he does.
