Suddenly Doctor Opinions has nothing to say

The guy who weighed in on everything says “no comment.”

Odd isn’t it? When he worked for President Trump, Anthony Fauci never met a subject he wasn’t willing to opine on. He was a regular Doctor Opinions.

This was my second biggest complaint about Fauci. He was incapable of staying in his lane.

Of course it didn’t spring up out of nowhere, this need to play Doctor Opinions.

Cable news on-air hosts treat Fauci like a Magic 8-ball – asking questions on subjects for which Fauci is not by any stretch of the imagination an expert. So it isn’t surprising that the little man with the great big ego went full-on Dear Abby and embraced the role of Doctor Opinions.

Education, public policy, the economy, you name it, Doctor Opinions weighed in on every subject under the sun.

Until now.

Yesterday on CNN (of course), Fauci was asked to give his response to Andrew Cuomo’s growing nursing home scandal.

And suddenly the man who has something to say about everything had nothing to say.

“I mean, I’m sorry. I’m really — I’m honestly not trying to evade your question,” Doctor Opinions stammered. “But I’m not really sure of all the details of that, and I think if I make a statement, it probably could either be incorrect or taken out of context. So, I prefer not to comment on that.”

What a difference a presidential administration makes.

When Trump was President, Fauci never passed up the opportunity to swerve out of his lane and offer his two cents on whatever subject got tossed his way.

Now answering a question on Andrew Cuomo’s deadly nursing home policy and the cover-up is a bridge too far for Doctor Opinions.

That seems rather odd given the fact that back in July Doctor Opinions couldn’t shut up about Andrew Cuomo. He praised Cuomo’s handling of the crisis and held up New York as an example of “doing it correctly.”

And now that the breadth and depth of Cuomo’s mismanagement is known, Doctor Opinions is keeping his opinions to himself.

Huh.

I wonder what changed.

Why so silent, Tony?

Perhaps this resident “Expert on Everything” is nothing but a partisan hack determined to shield and protect Democrat politicians no matter how many people they kill.

It’s long past time we tuck this tiny little man away in his lab and never hear from him again.
