It turns out that Dr. Anthony Fauci doesn’t take criticism very well.
The narcissistic doctor blows a gasket at the mere sight of negative publicity.
For example, Fauci was aghast to learn Americans do not trust him given his history of hypocrisy, flip-flops, and failed predictions.
“Are you kidding me?” Fauci scoffed at radio host Hugh Hewitt.
“I’m trying to explain to you the truth,” Hewitt fired back. “I have lost confidence in the CDC and the FDA and I actually believe a lot of Americans, a significant part of America now have lost confidence in you, Dr. Fauci.”
When asked whether he will ever step aside due to the fact he’s doing more harm than good, Fauci said, “No. Absolutely, unequivocally no.”
Most recently, Fauci lashed out at Fox News host Jesse Watters, claiming he should be “fired on the spot” for using a metaphor that criticized him.
During a speech, Jesse Watters argued that Fauci needs to be called out for his lies and questioned by Americans who are burdened with Fauci’s overly restrictive coronavirus-related policies.
Explaining how an ordinary person could create a viral moment, Watters said Fauci must be confronted in public and questioned on video in an “ambush.”
Fauci was shocked to learn that Watters promoted an aggressive style of journalism to undermine his demands on the American people.

More from Western Journal:
When Fauci went on CNN to speak with “New Day,” co-anchor John Berman, Watters’ speech was brought up.
“Jesse Waters, who is a Fox News entertainer, was giving a speech to a conservative group where he talked about you, and suggested to the crowd that they ambush you with what he said was some kind of rhetorical kill shot. That was his exact word,” Berman said, as Mediaite reported. “I’m wondering, you know, how much that concerns you when you hear language like that about you and your well-being?”

Fauci responded that he thought Watters’ comments were “horrible.”
Fauci went on to say that all he has been doing since the pandemic started is to promote good health practices, safety and the vaccine.
“And for that, you have some guy out there saying that people should be giving me a kill shot, to ambush me? I mean, what kind of craziness is there in society these days?”
Fauci then added that he thought Watters should be fired for these comments.
“That’s awful that he said that. And he’s going to go very likely unaccountable. I mean, whatever network he’s on is not going to do anything for him. I mean, that’s crazy. The guy should be fired on the spot!” Fauci said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci says Fox News’ Jesse Watters should “be fired on the spot” for telling a crowd to “ambush” Fauci with “the kill shot.”
