FUX Noise host Tucker Carlson took aim at Dr. Anthony Fauci on Tuesday night, unleashing a furious tirade against the top infectious disease expert, whom he called the chief buffoon.
Piggybacking on Sen. Rand Pauls criticism of Fauci at Tuesdays Senate hearing on the coronavirus pandemic, Carlson said the Republican lawmaker was right to complain about experts predictions about the virus.
A lot of wrong predictions have come out of Washington on the question of the coronavirus, and quite a few of them came directly from Dr. Fauci himself. We are not singling him out or attacking him, the Fox News star declared before devoting the next few minutes to directly attacking the White House coronavirus task force member.
Carlson proceeded to point out some of the positions Fauci has shifted on throughout the crisis, such as on face masks. After playing a clip of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease director saying in March that theres no reason for people to be walking around in a mask at that time, Carlson appeared to liken Fauci to a false messiah.

Being called a buffoon by Carlson is like being called ugly by a toad.

(115,674 posts)He was a buffoon even before he got his Fox gig. Anybody remember when Jon Stewart pantsed him and stuffed him in his locker on Crossfire? http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0410/15/cf.01.html
For Carlson to call anyone, let alone someone as distinguished as Dr. Fauci, a buffoon transcends pots commenting on the sootiness of kettles.

You think you have a lot of material there, eh Tucker? The problem is that it is largely from your own camp. Why don't you root around in your own hog pen for a bit, see what you can uncover?

(10,885 posts)Trying to insult Dr. Fauci by saying that he sometimes REVISES his positions completely ignores the horse manure coming from Carlson's high and mighty leader's mouth. These Repugs are masters at spinning the fallacies and falsehoods that Chump vomits out on a daily basis.
Lastly, a "buffoon" doesn't get to serve six presidents regardless of their party affiliation and build a stellar reputation in his field.
