I began to ask Trump if he ever sat down alone with Fauci to get a tutorial on the science behind the virus when the president cut in. “Yes, I guess, but honestly there’s not a lot of time for that, Bob. This is a busy White House. We’ve got a lot of things happening. And then this came up.” No matter how busy or what other things were happening, I frankly wondered what could be more important. Trump had carved out hours to talk with me.
