Sure. You've made assumptions about the motives of people eg Fauci. I have a background in computer modeling. When he first started babbling about his "Models" I tuned him out as a complete idiot on the very subject he was purporting to advise as a medical professional. I'm qualified to say that. Make sense?

Oh, to be honest with you I didn't even pick up on this when watching through some of the testimony. Might be because I have no background in compute modeling.

But when I speak about someone like Fauci and their intentions, I'm saying that I think that as a medical professional and expert it is important to note that his advice on only that subject matter should be taken into account. I also don't think he should corrupt what he thinks about a particular topic with another variable - like the economy - as it has nothing to do with his background.

I do actually think the fact that he has been in government for so long, in the same position, as important - while others do not. This guy is not a politician, and isn't trying to be one. I don't see a reason for him to have some ulterior motives here. Guy has literally been under many different administrations, and has been doing the same thing all along.

If he was someone who was just picked under Obama, and there was a theory about him having it out for Trump because of x,y,z then I may have reason to look a bit further. But there's no reason to think this guy is just making Trump seem like a bad guy. At least IMO.
