Chuck Schumer Gives Fauci Testimony Advice. The White House Responds.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is itching to hear from Dr. Anthony Fauci as he testifies before the Senate Health Committee Tuesday morning. The Democrat believes that without President Trump looking over his shoulder, Fauci can tell them how he really feels about the administration.

"Fauci has a huge amount of respect and it seems at times he's muzzled by the president," Schumer said. "The president is always lurking over his shoulder. This is the first time we get to hear him without the president looking over his shoulder or cutting him off or cutting the reporter off who asks the question, as he does frequently."

On the Senate floor, Schumer advised Dr. Fauci to "let it rip."

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany was quick to tell Schumer that he was guilty of wishful thinking.

"Perhaps Sen. Schumer was napping every Sunday morning when we put Dr. Fauci out on the Sunday shows," McEnany reacted on Fox News. As she reminded him, Fauci has called the White House's response "impressive."

If Chuckles really believed Trump has been muzzling Fauci - a narrative Fauci has denied - Chuckles' advice would have been some version of, "Be careful what you say." Chuckles was just giving Trump-Hating MSM parrots a sound-bite.

Everything about Schumer and the Democrats is a political calculus.  Nothing more, nothing less.  Never mind the virus, the sick, the dying/dead, the economy, or the devastating personal despair being suffered by millions.  To him, all of it equates to an opportunity.  I loathe him and his traveling pals.
