Trump: ‘He did things that were terrible’ when I contradicted him says Fauci

Fauci also blamed the president’s regular criticism of him for the threats he and his family face to their safety.

“To this day I have to have armed federal agents guarding me all the time,” Fauci said.

Fauci also told The Telegraph that Trump completely lost any remaining interest; he had in containing the pandemic after he lost the 2020 election; thus leaving it up to public health experts to try to contain the damage.
