Fauci Hailed China’s Lockdown as a Great Success

BUCK: Just a reminder: While Shanghai’s in lockdowns where you can’t even leave your apartment or they’ll actually lock you in a cell, and they’re stealing people’s pets and bludgeoning them to death in bags — I mean, it’s horrible what’s going on over there — Fauci, early on, was a big China lockdown proponent.

BUCK: Yeah. No, they weren’t, Clay. (laughing)

CLAY: (laughing)

BUCK: This is the problem with this is, no, it’s not better than anybody else. There’s nothing good about any of it. And he just said, you know, “You could never do it here.” Would Fauci want to do it here? I think if he could have gotten away with it he would have said, “Yeah, we gotta do the China lockdown in America.”

CLAY: Oh, I don’t think there’s any doubt that he watches all the drones and all the people on their balconies unable to go anywhere and thinks, “My God, it’s beautiful, it’s glorious, the sound of all these people who are locked up.” Again, understanding that there’s a multivariable analysis in every situation in life — and when you make one choice, you impact other choices. We had a childlike analysis of how to respond to covid, and I think a big reason why, tying it all in, was Twitter.
