Others have gone further. The willingness of Republicans facing close re-elections to attack Trump suggests that the president is now seen as an obstacle to their offers.
Meanwhile, Trump launched a new attack on Anthony Fauci, his top infectious disease expert, during a campaign call Monday that journalists could hear.
“Every time it appears on television, there is always a bomb, but there is a bigger bomb if you shoot it. This guy is a mess, ”Trump said.
The president also seemed to joke about the length of time Dr. Fauci has been in the United States government, saying “he’s been here for 500 years,” while also calling him a “nice” guy.
The comment on Dr. Fauci’s firing suggested that the president is sensitive to the ramifications of firing the official he is openly fighting during a pandemic.
Dr. Fauci had said over the weekend that Trump seemed to view the use of face masks as a sign of “weakness” and criticized that approach, a possible trigger for the president’s comments.
During a rally in Arizona yesterday, Trump mentioned the two British-born Isil terrorists from the cell called “The Beatles” who are now on trial in the United States. Trump called them “depraved” and “bad.” He also referenced a former American footballer in the crowd, saying the two jihadists are people who would have liked the former player and his team to “work.”
Joe Biden, the Democratic presidential nominee, was out of the way preparing for Thursday’s debate with Trump, the last of the campaign.
The election is on November 3.
