Soledad O'Brien gets absolutely dragged for condescending response to Janice Dean over Dr. Fauci and COVID-19 deaths in NY

Add Janice Dean to the list of folks not happy with Dr. Anthony Fauci’s praise of New York’s handling of COVID-19:

This is garbage. https://t.co/nhvzfXFFul

She’s 100% right:

Sorry Dr. Fauci. 32,000 deaths. 6,000 seniors? Nope.

Now, here’s the condescending reaction from Soledad O’Brien:

Soledad, you left out something though:

*Meteorologist who lost both in-laws to NY’s disastrous nursing home COVID policies.

Dean fired back with a weather example of her own:

So if a hurricane struck New York and it killed over 30,000 people (including thousands of seniors who were forced below sea level), but then the governor built a sea wall afterwards saying he fixed the problem, would this be considered a huge success?

I used a weather analogy for those who say I should “stick to weather”

And maybe Soledad missed this thread from Jake Tapper at her former network that called out Andrew Cuomo and Bill de Blasio for their failed leadership and policies:

Here’s a good thread from jake tapper. Enjoy! https://t.co/1DOG2qtZR8 https://t.co/uUWdoHTHIj

Anyway, Soledad absolutely earned this dragging and we’re here for it:

You are a bad person, she lost her father and mother-in-law in NY, but you know that already. https://t.co/dIsbXO5QIW

Janice Dean lost her in-laws to COVID-19 due to Gov. Cuomo’s incompetence.
