Dr. Fauci didn't storm out and quit either.
She may have had the same reasons not to. She wanted to be a part of the team to fight the virus, even if, to keep her job, she had to sit in silence and watch the former guy make a fool of himself. As Fauci did on many occasions.

I've seen the theory that she and Fauci were at least attempting to play good cop-bad cop to nudge him (in other words, treating him like a child, which did not succeed but was probably the only thing that had a chance of success.) Of course, playing the good cop, she looks weaker than Fauci playing bad cop. But a team is a team.

I don't care for some of the things Dr. Birx said (or didn't say), especially the clip of her praising Chump's attention to science (paraphrasing; I can't remember the exact words right now), but I also don't care for cthe way people are trying to throw her under the bus.

Pointing fingers at Dr. Birx or anyone else is a distraction from the fact that there is one real villain here, and that villain is Donald J. Trump.

wearing the pointy mask instead of the medical mask.

It also covers the nose and mouth - and itis so revealing as to who one is dealing with.
