The pressure of this crisis has brought out every bad quality you could imagine him having. It is as if all of his narcissism (and who knows what other mental health issues) have been magnified and put on full display. I can only imagine how he behaves when he is not in front of a camera.

Someone with the expertise on what severe mental duress will do to tRump needs to step up to warn us ASAP.

Fauci is probably worried he would be fired and that would cost millions of lives.
