Trump defends the US's bungled coronavirus response by claiming Fauci told him 'it's not gonna be a big deal'
President Donald Trump said at a Fox News town hall on Sunday night that "everybody," including leading infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, previously downplayed the severity of the virus.
In response to a question about why he did not act sooner to prepare for a COVID-19 outbreak in the US, Trump said Fauci "was saying it's gonna pass, not gonna be a big deal."
While Fauci has been warning the Trump administration about an infectious disease outbreak since 2017, he said in January that the novel coronavirus was not something Americans should be worried about "right now."

Fauci is purportedly America's foremost expert on infectious diseases. Are you saying that Trump should NOT have listened to him? Should Trump have hired a psychic to predict the future?
Some Trump supporters are going to blame Obama because:
1) They are very loyal to Trump, treating him like he's God.
2) Some of his supporters will never get over the fact that Obama was President of the USA.
A large dose of vindictiveness drives alot of this.
Come on now. The said covid-19 didn't even exist when Obama was POTUS.
And it never existed until trump was our president.....tell us how he could have prepared? Be specific.
