Our two leading political parties are two sides of the same coin. Heads they win, tails you lose. 

The Democrats have traditionally been portrayed as being for the common man. Republicans are known for supporting business.

The Democrats are a big amorphous blob that spouts vague 'feel good' blather. The Republicans try to think logically but they are fractured on any number of hot-button issues.

I was going somewhere with this, something along the lines of politicians say all kinds of things on the campaign trail, but all that they actually do in Congress is what their benefactors want, and those benefactors are only pushing their issues, which may not be in the best interests of the country. 

But we all know all that, so I am not going any further down that dead end road. What I want to know is why Trump didn't fire Dr. Fauci a year ago?

Dr. Fauci's pronouncements were what ruined this year and possibly this country. And who gave him a platform to speak from? Trump. Why did he do that? Was he blinded by 'science'? Dr. Fauci led to lockdowns, lockdowns led to mass unemployment, mass unemployment led to riots (never mind the supposed political motivations), all of which led to Trump's defeat at the polls. You may say the election was rigged, but who got Dr. Fauci up on stage? Sometimes I wonder if he was a plant sent in by the evil Democrats to ruin Trump.

It was obvious from the get-go that Fauci was making trouble. Why didn't Trump fire him? Not that it matters at this point.
