I notice democrats often point to Dr. Fauci as a way to attack Trumps COVID response.. While I myself think the USA has, for the most part, handled COVID pretty decent I dont think its due to Trumps vision or anything else. I think it was more luck on his part, than intellect. BUT I do still find it compelling to share this quote from an interview with Dr. Fauci where he clearly stated he was impressed with the Trump administrations response to COVID. Not because I am impressed by Trump but more because I think the negative narrative against him is way overblown and not really a reflection of the reasonable job the USA did overall.

Here is the exact wording from the interview (there was a bit of irrelevant rambling I removed at ..., I suggest you look up the full interview for full context):

MARK LEVIN: Welcome back. Dr. Fauci, let me ask you a question. You've been doing this a long time. Have you ever seen this big of a coordinated response by an administration to such a threat? A health threat?

DR. ANTHONY FAUCI: Well, we've never had a threat like this and the coordinated response has been, there are a number of adjectives to describe it. Impressive, I think is one of them.

...

So I can't imagine that that under any circumstances that anybody could be doing more. I mean, obviously, we're fighting a formidable enemy -- this virus. This virus is a serious issue here.
