In a tweet that began by insult House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Trump stumbled into a bitterly insulting stab at Dr. Deborah Birx:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">So Crazy Nancy Pelosi said horrible things about Dr. Deborah Birx, going after her because she was too positive on the very good job we are doing on combatting the China Virus, including Vaccines &amp; Therapeutics. In order to counter Nancy, Deborah took the bait &amp; hit us. Pathetic!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1290282508303716352?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 3, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>First of all, Trump&#8217;s sniveling whinery about Pelosi is ramped up to at least eleven. What he describes as <em>&#8220;horrible&#8221;<\/em> was actually pretty tame. Pelosi was asked if she had confidence in Dr.Birx. To which she <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNNnewsroom\/status\/1290304693822881792\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">calmly replied<\/a><\/strong> <em>&#8220;I don&#8217;t have confidence in anyone who stands there while the President says &#8216;swallow Lysol and it&#8217;s going to cure your virus.'&#8221;<\/em> No rational person could argue with that.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Trump indicates that his anger is rooted in criticism of Dr. Birx being <em>&#8220;too positive on the very good job we are doing&#8221;<\/em> on combating the TrumpVirus. But that&#8217;s precisely why she has lost the confidence of Pelosi and every other knowledgeable person. Only the most heartless and uncaring cretins could celebrate 157,000 dead Americans and nearly five million sickened as a <em>&#8220;positive&#8221;<\/em> outcome.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Trump got to the point by making the accusation that Birx <em>&#8220;took the bait &#038; hit us.&#8221;<\/em> He then called her <em>&#8220;pathetic.&#8221;<\/em> And what was so pathetic about Birx&#8217;s remarks? She <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2020\/08\/02\/politics\/birx-coronavirus-new-phase-cnntv\/index.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">simply said<\/a><\/strong> that <em>&#8220;What we are seeing today is different from March and April. It is extraordinarily widespread. It&#8217;s into the rural as equal urban areas.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Birx was absolutely correct. Despite her generally embarrassing performances as Trump&#8217;s dancing puppet, Birx had a rare moment of honesty that corresponded to the facts. And Trump wasn&#8217;t having it. So while Pelosi gently conveyed that she lacked confidence in Birx, Trump viciously disparaged her as pathetic. And then he accused Pelosi of saying <em>&#8220;horrible things.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Trump&#8217;s White House Director of Strategic Communications, Alyssa Farah, went even further <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Alyssafarah\/status\/1289939157624619009\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">saying that<\/a><\/strong> <em>\u201cIt is deeply irresponsible of Speaker Pelosi to repeatedly try to undermine &#038; create public distrust in Dr Birx.&#8221;<\/em> What does Farah think that Trump is doing when he castigates Birx, Dr. Fauci, and other members of his task force whenever they have the audacity to place their expertise above his flabby gut feelings?<\/p>\n<p>No one has done more to undermine his own team than Trump.
