Why Trump picking on Fauci is bad politics

President Donald Trump is down by a significant margin to former Vice President Joe Biden with just three weeks to go in the 2020 campaign. One of his apparent answers to climb out of that hole is to continue to feature Dr. Anthony Fauci in an ad, which the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases wants taken down, and to attack Fauci on Twitter.

From a political standpoint, Trump’s willingness to go after Fauci makes almost no sense. If anything, Trump’s actions are a manifestation of the traits that have led him to a historic deficit in the polls. CONT.
