Like long-COVID, Dr. Anthony Fauci just won’t go away and he’s back peddling his political opinions dressed up as medical advice after GOP nominee Donald J. Trump was nearly assassinated.
The former president came perilously close to becoming the first major party candidate to be killed with a shot to the head since Bobby Kennedy back in 1968 but miraculously, the shooter’s bullet only nicked his ear, giving rise to kooky left-wing conspiracy theories about his injury.
On Friday, the elfin former career bureaucrat seemed to mainstream the claims of the tinfoil hatters during an appearance on CNN where he downplayed Trump’s headshot as a “superficial wound to the ear, and that’s all.”

“What more does the public need to know about the extent of Donald Trump’s injuries and his treatment?” Blitzer asked.
“You know, I don’t think there is much more to it. I mean, from what we’ve seen and what we’ve heard, it was, it was a bullet shot that grazed his ear and injured his ear, according to the physicians who examined him. There was no other further damage,” Fauci told the CNN propagandist.
“So I think that with regard to the health related purely to the bullet itself, I think he’s in the clear as far as I can see,” he continued. “I mean, it’s dangerous to make diagnoses from a distance from what I’m seeing, the way he’s acting now and what his physician’s report saw. It seems to have been a superficial wound to the ear, and that’s all.”
“I just want to just read one line, from chief medical correspondent Doctor Sanjay Gupta who said this, and I’ll read it to you. This is Doctor Sanjay Gupta saying gunshot blast near the head can cause injuries that aren’t immediately noticeable, such as bleeding in or on the brain, damage to the inner ear, or even psychological trauma, as you know. He’s a neurosurgeon. What do you make of that?” Blitzer said, previewing the next line of attacks to discredit Trump.
“Well, I mean, I know Sanjay’s a good friend, he’s got a good clinical judgment. He’s a practicing neurosurgeon. So, again, it’s very difficult from a distance when you’re not examining someone yourself to make any projection about it,” Fauci replied.
“I’m just commenting on what I’m seeing superficially, I would imagine, Wolf, that his physicians did some studying. They very likely did an imaging study being a CT or an MRI or what have you. I don’t know that as a fact, but I would think that that would be a reasonable thing to do following an encounter the way he had with a bullet,” he added.
X users have had enough of the diminutive liar who continues to be featured in the media long after the horrors that he visited upon America have subsided.

Why does anyone still listen to a word that this fraud says?

“Superficial.” Much like Anthony Fauci’s understanding of virology.

Is he qualified to diagnose a patient he hasn’t examined?

Tony, I will never consider any medical advice or information that comes from your mouth.

Fauci is not even a doctor. Only a Dr Megele mimic.

To many, Fauci’s appearance was typically sleazy and dishonest as the regime’s media sock puppets seek to regain control of the narrative with their implications that something isn’t right with Trump and he needs to have a publicly released medical exam. First, they got him shot, and now they’re upset that there is public sympathy after he wasn’t killed.
The 83-year-old architect of the COVID lockdowns and mask mandates is currently pimping his new book, giving him another excuse for face time in the media which is desperately trying to recapture the initiative after the failed assassination and they will be relentless to do so.
“Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous – and most revered – doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history,” reads the Amazon description of “On Call,” the recently released memoir.
