Let Me Tell You About Deb Birx ...

Has she hopelessly compromised a distinguished career?

Or is she attempting to keep people informed despite the Orange One?

If she speaks up more loudly, would we be in danger of a Birxit?

Please take my poll.

I'm sure she is a lifelong Republican (military, doctor, wealthy). She spins his behavior like any other member of his posse and cult although she is more refined about it than your average Dee Plorable.

She's trying. Both she and Fauci correct him as politely as possible. She made them correct last week's briefing report where she was originally portrayed as confirming what he had said.

Maybe behind the scenes she is helping to temper Trump's worst impulses but she's said nothing of substance in any press conference I've seen.

She’s a trumper. I don’t trust anything she says.

Agreed, R5.

Here she is deflecting and diverting Jake Tapper's question about the orange hog's injecting bleach/disinfectant theory.

I like this Brian Tyler Cohen who does the commentary at the end.

Her scarf game is weak compared to Speaker Pelosi’s.

Nancy = Hermès

Birx = JC Penney’s

I gave her the benefit of the doubt for 2 months but the last month she was deplorable and enabling and the DOUBLESPEAK this weekend was sickening. She made me sick.

When Jake Tapper asked her today, what people should know about disinfectant, she launched into a long-winded excuse and explanation of what Trump meant.

All she had to do was give a simple answer about what people should know about the disinfectants, e.g., “Disinfectants are for external use only. You can use liquid disinfectants like Lysol or bleach, diluted on hard surfaces or in your washing machine. There is nothing you can swallow that will prevent covid.”

But, instead she blathered on and answered a question no one asked.

Fuck her. She had a chance to impart information to the public and she wasted her time on excusing her boss.

And it’s absolutely pathetic, hearing an elderly woman speak with vocal fry.

Will she be the new HHS Secretary? She is in the running...

She's Frances Conroy without the dead eye.

I can not watch this lady. She makes me cringe.

by Anonymousreply 14April 27, 2020 4:45 AM

I detest her. Trump's BS addresses are an utter waste of time and brain cells (to the shock of dozens!) and Scarf Lady made her allegiance to the Führer abundantly clear from day one. For a "doctor", she comes off as a brainless twit. Nothing of knowledge or meaningful direction seems to ever leave her lips. She is good at congratulating Dump for being the bigliest, bestliest, Uuugest, 10 out of 10 president in history! That the entire world has eva seen! Eva!! She begins and ends there. Nothing to say whatsoever. Go get a job being a clapping seal for Fattie Hannity and give the rest of us a break from your shrill, schoolmarm, pointless voice "doctor"...

I don’t think she’s is wealthy at all. I bet she lives in a cluttered shack and never takes her trash out. She looks like she has twigs in her hair and shops at goodwill.

She’s been on a government salary for years and a military stipend before that. I wouldn’t be surprised if they pulled her out from behind a dumpster in Logan circle.

She showed herself this week. She is all in for this cult leader. Fauci does not make excuses for him like she does.

Why is it everybody needs to explain what he means all the time? We are constantly told he was joking, didn't mean it, was being sarcastic. If the cult leader cannot be clearer during a pandemic and economic collapse perhaps he should just shut his fat, stinky mouth.

R16. Her husband is an attorney who has worked for a top lobby firm in DC and has made tons of money. No shack for this Trump sycophant.

Well he must be a cheapskate. Letting his wife walk around looking homeless.

by Anonymousreply 19April 27, 2020 5:54 AM

Dr. Birx was looking drained and exhausted during her interviews this weekend. The full time job of trying to juggle ethics with spinning and deflecting for the orange hog must be taking its toll.
