You know what this is really all about?

He was outraged that Fauci was listened to instead the him and his, 'herd immunity' nonsense.

"News Wrap: Fauci rejects Rand Paul's claims on herd immunity
Sep 23, 2020

It is if there's a mutating virus, and morons aren't taking vaccines, masking, or keeping distance.

Your freedom to go to applebees was more important than your neighbors life. That's why fauci is the scapegoat for your moral failure.
