From a strictly PR standpoint,  (reaching the masses)  The funny thing about Fauci is that he seems very affable,  sincere & totally non threatening . It's hard to picture him doing a satanic ritual at bohemian grove with Bill Gates. LOL

Similarly,  Gavin Newsom is very skilled,  articulate & charismatic & even at cursory glance,  likeable. Neither of these guys would be easily  painted as a villian of any sort, in my opinion.
RW response:

These are the marks of skilled psychopaths who lie in the face of reality.

A narcissist in a very crude way cares only about himself but does have some feelings for others.

A sociopath does not generally have feelings for others but is bumbling about it his lack of care and easy to spot.

Trump is probably somewhere between a narcissist and a sociopath.

The psychopath does not have feelings for others but is very shrewd about it and difficult to detect.

With both Fauci and Newsom, you have to pay very close attention to what they say and how they lie, contradict themselves and distort because they will be very smooth and polished when they do it.

They are the most dangerous because they can suck in the masses most easily.
