Tony Fauci's approval numbers? 78 approve, only 7%!!! disapprove

If Trump were to #FireFauci that would be immensely damaging to his Presidency and to his re-election chances

Twitter is not real life

If Trump needs a scalp, he should strongly consider firing the Surgeon General over this incomprehensible tweet

I go over the #FireFauci arguments in detail in this new @HumanEvents YouTube.

It's actually quite easy to explain through the lens of privilege

Democrats have it, conservatives don't
I explained how progressive privilege works in this piece from last year, on why Carlos Maza could advocate for political violence against conservatives and then turn around and advocate for deplatforming

In our 2020 American class system, Joe Biden is an aristocrat, he is entitled to have his actions and words interpreted charitably

Brett Kavanaugh, conversely, is a "peasant" - accusations against him are presumed to be true

Here's my thesis for what happened over the past month:

1) We were on track for a severe, Italy-style outbreak in a number of places around the country

2) Then, President Trump and state governors started taking it very seriously, and Americans changed their behavior
3) That wasn't soon enough to prevent a serious outbreak in New York City, but it was enough to prevent outbreaks elsewhere

4) The models were wrong due to some combination of overestimating contagiousness/lethality and underestimating the effectiveness of social distancing
5) Overall what we've seen is a heroic effort by the American people that's likely saved at tens of thousands of lives, and perhaps hundreds of thousands of lives

6) Given the way things are going we should be in a position to ease social distancing recommendations around May 1

"The models were wrong, they horribly overstated the # of deaths/hospitalizations we would face with social distancing, therefore we should start to reopen the economy."

Spot the holes in this argument
Hint: we don't know WHY the models are wrong

If coronavirus is more contagious than the modelers assumed, that's great news

But what if social distancing measures are more effective that the modelers assumed?

Where's the control?
Here's the real red pill - the models are a red herring, in both directions

Panic-mongering media used the most extreme projections for clicks

And then the flu crew used the (inevitable) inaccuracy of the models for ego preservation purposes ("See! You were wrong too!")
