US President Donald Trump and the nation's top disease expert, Anthony Fauci, have long offered competing narratives around the US coronavirus response.

, has appeared less and less often in White House sightings and the President's comments.

Over the weekend, a White House official leaked an internal memo containing a list of comments made by Dr Fauci with an aim of discrediting and damaging the doctor. For example, he said in February that the public should not wear masks, but changed his stance by March.

Hope so, Fauci is corrupted.

This is a major W... fym

I hope he does... Fauci has been flip flopping on everything and they call him the expert. I believe Fauci just loves being on TV and does not want this to end. sendfaucipacking and listen to the experts in other countries that have a handle on the virus.

It’s not a tv reality show

No, he'll just outsource the job to Putin and the bounty hunters.

🤣🤣 Trump had a moment of reality; realising that he is in fact not the expert on COVID-19 BUT he thinks sacking an expert is smart! Sacking him won't make you an expert Trump, you do not have any understanding of a pandemic & live in a fantasy world!

Lets hope so. He's a fraud. Fauci originally told people they didnt need to wear masks, but has done a 180 recently.

Another ABC lie.

Top expert. CCP paid agent.

And follow in the footsteps of Jair Bolsonaro...

Of coz Trump can fire anyone who speaks his lie...And it helps him dig a grave deeper. The whole America is under a kindergarten style leadership.

AussieQ4 Can only hope

I should hope so, Fauci is a fraud. He is Deep State through and through.

Well he has taken the united states out of the world health organisation, so you can bet on it!

Dr Fauci thinks so. When The Donald announced to the 'fake' news, saying 'Dr Fauci is tremendous' he knew his days were numbered.

Why not? He does it so well!!

Fauci should be jailed.

Why would you want to work for the germ?

From what I have seen most Americans on both sides have lost respect for Dr Fauci. So it’s probably time to go.

I hope so. Fauci has been proven to lie consistently, change his story on a regular basis and he also stand to make billions out of a vaccine while denigrating other treatments. Getting rid oh him, Birx and Redfield would be a good start

Expert? He is deep state

The worst thing that Fauci could do to himself is to stay and have DJ Trump as a boss. The guy deserves a medal for staying as long as he has under a moron like Donald.

If he isn’t going to listen to him what’s the difference

Fauci is a world renowned scientist. He should consider it a bonus to be 'fired' by the orange lunatic.

Don't you think that if Trump COULD fire Faucci, that he would have done so already?

The US is a poor country. It looks good outside but the system is rotten. They can't afford to close the border because it will hurt their economy. In this case, money is more important than lives in the US.

Why not? He's not needed anymore lol

I doubt it

About time

He'd better!!

Maybe the Trade Ministry can take this job from Fauci.. Seems like thwyr really angling to discredit him. livegyro

He should. Fauci has one job and can't even be consistent on that.

FAuci the Fraud ... the lies about hiv /aids should have fired him long ago... do your research on him .. dig a little past your nose.

Fauci is in bed with Bill Gates. Might be in some trouble. Has connections to the WUHAN bio-lab.

Apparently no one knows more about anything than Donald Trump. He is an egotist with nothing to back him up except, quite inexplicably, the Republican Party, who cling to a semblance of power over any moral dilemmas about what is actually right. They are monsters in suits.

No! He’ll probably just fire Fauci instead 😎

This is what dystopia looks like.

He should. Fauci is dodgy at best.

I do hope so. The guy has been spectacularly wrong on many occasions.

America needs the calm, expert voice of Fauci, now more than ever in this covid world.

Yes he is and Australia should hire him ASAP.

God’s will, it will happen

Why not,he can’t ever give straight answers on anything he’s all over the

realDonaldTrump DrTonyFauci that is not the question. The question is, is Dr. Fauci gonna tell that narcissistic liar to shove his corona where the sun don’t shine.

Fauci is the medical equivalent of the climate change brigades Tim Flannery. All bluff and no bluster.

Appreciate the serious personal and professional consequences Dr. Yan is facing. This hero scientist is taking a life-threatening risk to speak the truth and save the entire world from this possibly the most dangerous challenge we face in human history.

Your fired. 👉

When you dance with the Devil, it's little surprise you'll get burned 🔥🕺🔥

its what he does for God’s sake. He fires people. Big surprise.

There appears to be some sad confusion in the US between ‘learning’ and ‘knowing’. Trump thinks he already ‘knows’ everything about Covid-19. Fauci is a scientist - he’s open to ‘learning’ based on real time experience, solid proof and the undeniable facts as they become clear.

He's actually employed by Bill Gates...

Looking like it 🤬🤬

Hong Kong virologist claiming coronavirus cover-up tells 'Bill Hemmer Reports': 'We don't have much time' FoxNews

Well he should. Fauci is a deep state puppet and has been spreading fear and misinformation from the start. But of course ABC takes his side.

Fauci is a traitor who was funding the Wuhan lab and is sabotaging Trump at every turn. He is working for/with Democrats to make Trump look bad pre election.

geoff_calkins A so called journalistic media network using sarcasm in its headline The world had lost its greatest generation and its moral compass!!

They get what they voted for 🤣

🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀 = Fauci 🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀

I feel that GladysB and ScottMorrisonMP do not want to control the virus at all. The Liberal share Trump ideology by nature. To them, economy comes first and Covid19 is a flu. We really worry that Australia will turn into US in terms of infection rate soon. auspol

Freaking Fire Fauci. realDonaldTrump

Fauci has a vested financial interested in biolabs in Wuhan. That in itself should have excused him from the table. The FACT that the CCP conspired with the WHO is not seen as outrageous in the eyes of the media speaks VOLUMES to fair minded people. When you lose them, it's over.

He should go. Fauci is part of the medical industrial complex, the same one that hides cheap treatments and profits of illness.

We hope so.

Trump's done such an outstanding job on handling the virus, a record 60000 new cases a day! Trump's a

Of course he will.

I hope so he has done a shocking job!

Fauci's ego is out of control

Yes, Fauci will get fired. That's how Team of Rival works: You debate your rivals. They make too much sense. You being their boss, fire them.

Why would Trump fire himself? ;-)

He said people shouldn't be wearing masks back in March - he, like many others, dragged his heels on this. There will be no love lost if he's replaced.

You mean the 'expert' who has consistently been wrong about stuff like wearing masks or basic drug treatments like Hydroxy?

America having a good time I see.

A narcissists dilemma

straw meet camel

Do it! realDonaldTrump

Of course. Chuck Woolery’s available.

Please do.
