Total traitor. Sucking up to Trump to stay in the “circle of GOP love”. Really offensive. What about her oath of office?

Politics above facts, that’s why America failed in cov-19 this time

Trump is not doctor, he can has his own opionion. His only recommendation about cov-19 treatment turn out to be true and low cost. dr fauci as a doctor made mistakes on his own duty since the beginning

She didn’t make mistakes, and no wrong suggestion like Dr.fauci

smart lady !!!

This isn’t any news, scientists and financial experts and consultants all are respectful of whom they represent.

Then she is a people-pleasing drone not a people-saving hero. We all make choices.

Unfortunately what matters is actually that WE trust her. Not him.

Tough job, for such a sensitive man child.

Dr Birx has kept her public comments to facts and explanations, unlike Fauci.

She's afraid of the bully Trump as opposed to standing up for what is right

Why? She is causing the harm as he is. She has sold out and has no credibility left.

Yup, and that’s why people who used to respect her don’t anymore.

I could of told you that; just look at her demeanor on TV. Like she's walking on eggshells.

SILENCE = DEATH. JoeBiden ewarren PeteButtigieg Covid_19 TrumpVirus ProjectLincoln RVAT2020

So, she puts the president's fragile ego before the health of millions. Was that in the Hippocratic Oath that she took?

Dr. Fauci has not. He exposed himself as a two-faced little troll from the very beginning.

It’s a fine sick line...

Baby sitting a grown ass man? Science and facts know no age so better let the gloves off.

Bull shit and brush your teeth or get them fix

No point arguing with someone that is unhinged and even if you disagree with him, he believes he can do whatever he wants. This is what makes these times very dangerous not only is the economy failing, but your life is in peril...

DeborahBirx ows her mentor AnthonyFauci more respect than Trump' rotten regime. May be she keeps realDonaldTrump ear - but still no evidence of intelligent life or best education behind POTUS ear. Face to face Covid19 RNA code pool superior to realDonaldTrump DNA code

Incredible that Trump's ego has to be considered even on an issue like this. Every day the evidence mounts that Trump is unfit for office, yet his supporters remain blind to it.

masks are only 70% effective even IF worn correctly-add a face shield add another 15%= 85%-so let orange man let it hang out -he protects others from his spew -yet he can be exposed to others & any airborn viral Aerosolizedspray from covid19 - u go orange man -Breathe deeply now

If the doctor cannot diagnose and tell the truth to the patient, in this case Trump and the American people when they need to be told Urgently cause it is a life or death situation, what good is it to placate Trump when Americans are dying? Duh! Let Americans die or baby Trump!!

That's all good but spreading misinformation and following Trump's deadly, self serving lies is a disgrace.

Just like every other republican except mitt Romney

What a strange notion?! All subordinates should keep any disagreements with their superior in-house.

She and Fauci have both failed their jobs and responsibility during this pandemic, she even said this is only another influenza back in Feb. Obviously, she has not done her homework, both of them need to be replaced by capable and responsible physicians.

She failed at her job by doing this, just look at the entire southern United States from coast to coast.

Great... it’s only costing tens of thousands of lives for Dr. Birx to avoid embarrassing the man with orange skin, fake hair, adult diapers, a girder belt, shoe lifts, an adderall addiction, and an idiots IQ.

Why?

I don't trust her. I think I used to in the beginning.

She has violated her oath as a doctor ☠️

people not doing their jobs properly in order to keep this asshole’s trust IS THE PROBLEM

No, she has sold out her professional integrity, putting lives at risk to protect Trump. There is a reason she is not on Trump bad books.. She's on team Trump! AmerMedicalAssn

another sheep, keep up the good for nothing work

Well, just so long as she gets to keep her job. It's not as if actually DOING her job properly was important... ☹️

Smart success

So basically we have an administration of yesmen and women, afraid of an incompetent racist comforting AmericanExperimentFailing EnemyOfThePeople TrumpCrimeFamily

yes, Birx has been quite supportive of Trump, like not laughing out loud when potus said 'injected disinfectant', and normal people thought Trump just pissed himself.

Coward.

She is NO WOMAN'S WOMAN or she would speak truth to power for her family and ours !!

While I admire her commtment, and don’t envy her challenge, clearly, having that ear does not yield any benefit.

👎

She managed to keep trumps trust in her but lost the public

So weak, protect him at the peril of all others

Oh really you don't say. Thanks Captain Obvious. trumpcorruptseverything

She’s bought and paid for by Trump. Sorry, she showed her loyalty when she couldn’t visit her grandchild because she had to “protect” Trump. She’s not a true scientist. She should be ashamed.

The president or American lives.

Her inability to tell the truth is causing thousands of people to die. There is no other version to the end of this story.

Vote for truth, justice and the American dream.

At the cost of how many lies?

That's weak, just speak the truth

You either tell the truth or you say what Trump wants you to say. I think Dr. Fauci chose the right avenue to follow!

She’s enabling his BS

As if maintaining the trust of the idiot that said we should drink disinfectants & ingest UV light to treat Covid_19 after his moronic a$$ called it a Dem hoax that would 'disappear like a miracle.' This virus is spreading like wildfire & the people elected to help us are not.

Women know how to handle man-babies. Do it all the time.

Why should she do that? She supposed to be a fucking doctor and her recommendations should be based on science not to please Trump

Blue states will stay in top of rankings for deaths per million.

Come on

...and is anything positive accomplished by invoking this strategy?

That’s her big worry during a pandemic. She’s be more credible if she QUIT and then spoke the TRUTH. “president” Scump needs to be spoken to like the toddler he is. REMOVE AND LOCK UP.

Like a toddler you mean ?

Trust in him killing everyone ?

and destroy herself sad

She knows the same trick the world leaders do. Pump him up a little here and there and do whatever you wsnt.

Fuck birx

...and being complicit with a lyin' scumbag who's ignoring dying people by the thousands so he doesn't lose an election. Not a good look. Not a good look at all.

LOSER

hence no one trusts her

It's a bioattack.

... I mean, maybe we could all focus on saving lives instead

As literally any responsible member of the administration should do. Otherwise, resign and tell the world your story.

We know that ; Dr. Faucie too. He see how dangerous that is and said fuck Donald Trump.

Shocking... A health expert that won’t bend the knee to the MSM mob...

Yep...Nuh...Dunno

Look at her face when Trump said injecting disinfectant can cure the virus

Who is playing who Deborah?

She just doesn't want to ever hear the words: You're fired.

Fauci, not so much. For attention he will stab the President in the back giving different opinions on CNN, MSNBC. He does love attention.

When Trumps tenure is all over, we’re going to hear a lot of his aides say they stayed quiet so as to try and keep him in check.

Is that “Anonymous Sources” You’re running rags

She makes a great Eva Braun

What people?

IMO too many people around trump take the tact to be quiet as an advisor, which puts the whole country at risk. Somewhere btwn that and blatantly mouthing off/betraying him.... Btwn is the answer TIME business

Trust over lives, makes for a good Trump soldier.

Seems reasonable.

Booking.com and Partners responsible to 47 years of Finance's Crimes inside WallStreet and International Bancks Evidents relation with Public Health

And destroying her credibility in the process...there are no other options with this President if you are intent on keeping your job....

Giving out true information, and getting the economy jumpstarted are not mutually exclusive. Trump is giving Americans all the information and then LEADING the country through the minefield.

When seeing large gatherings of Trump supporters endangering themselves she is partly responsible, not just Trump. realDrBirx

You mean she's a sell-out

Well as a result of her choice, she undercut the public’s trust in her.

WSJ, This BRIEFING is INSANE! The briefing says to STOP & AVOID indoor dining, events, etc. YET! In the same briefing schools must open. HOW if the schools actually create that exact SAME environment & with a President that ignores the pandemic & will Not issue a Mask Order!

What could she possibly mean? Telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? I sincerely doubt it.

Dr. Birx has lost all credibility because she continues to choose Trump over science. She’s just another sycophant in the White House who’s putting lives at risk in order to please Dear Leader. BelieveFauci

This woman is spineless and should step down !

She is an embarrassment.

Well, that’s been obvious. She drank the Trump Kool-Aid long ago. Bring back Dr. Fauci!

F*ck that! Saving American People is vastly more important than protecting a traitorous, not a scientist & has no medical degree to his name president.

Then she is complicit in the abject failure that is the federal response to the now out of control pandemic.

Trump loves women who fall in line. Too bad she trashed her credibility and credibility of female scientists everywhere.

Would be nice if she put public health first.

not, to try to express science/logic....... or be fired.........

That is because she wants to keep her job.

Trump says he will pressure states to reopen schools in fallPresident Trump says he'll put pressure on governors to reopen schools this fall. At a White House roundtable, speakers minimized the risk of the spread of COVID-19 among children but acknowledged it's important to protect the vulnerable. What about the fact that some teachers and many support staff (cafeteria workers, bus drivers, etc) tend to be older and could have pre-existing conditions? Are they supposed to choose between paying the bills or risking their health? Come make me! Fvck that whole administration! Nothing but money laundering, human trafficking subhumans!
