Conservatives Furious That Dr. Fauci Lands Major Magazine Cover Before Melania Trump

By

There are certain headlines that the computer seems unwilling to write, and the above appears to be one. As everyone outside the cult knows, anyone who displeases the cult leader is to be banished, no matter how talented, how needed, how dedicated (to the nation, not the cult), and now Dr. Fauci is taking his place as one who “displeases” the cult because he happens to believe that the science says that we’re in for one rough time with COVID – as if things weren’t rough enough.

The cultists – led by cult-acolyte Mark Levine- is upset, very upset, about the fact that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the physician with 40 years dedicated to fighting disease in this country, is now gracing the cover of InStyle magazine.

And it’s not just the cover, according to InStyle:

Fauci not only landed a lengthy interview and a shoot, but was the magazine’s special digital cover.

“A special digital cover: Dr. Anthony Fauci and his wife, bioethicist Dr. Christine Grady spoke to [Norah O’Donnell] about the battle against COVID-19, Fauci’s contentious relationship with the White House and how he’s staying sane (pro-tip: he power walks),” the magazine teased. 

That, of course, is bad enough. Making it worse? The fact that First Lady Melania Trump has not graced the cover once -not once(!) – in her tenure as First Lady. Can you imagine? A First Lady who was once a “model” and yet hasn’t yet been on the cover of InStyle?

From Mark Levine’s Twitter feed:

Could it possibly be a message? Is it that InStyle doesn’t want to be political and put political figures on the cover? That must be it.

Oh, no. Wait. That might not be it:

As noted by Newsweek, Mrs. Obama graced a total of 12 magazine covers during her husband’s time in office. “In addition to appearing on the cover of famous fashion mag Vogue three times, she’s also advocated national interest issues in two Essence magazine features, twice for Time magazine and Glamour magazine, and once for Redbook, Instyle and Radar,” the outlet noted.

Maybe it just gets down to who InStyle wants on the cover, versus who it doesn’t.

It sure appears that the Trump administration is angry that the country listens to Dr. Fauci, Melania … not so much.

Peace, y’all
