President Donald Trump on Monday sought to downplay tension with Dr. Anthony Fauci after a White House official shared a statement that appeared to undermine the nation’s leading infectious disease expert.
“I have a very good relationship with Dr. Fauci, I’ve had for a long time,” Trump said at the White House during a roundtable event honoring police officers. “I find him to be a very nice person. I don’t always agree with him.”
A senior administration official also told CNN on Monday that recent frustration with Fauci does not stem from a lack of confidence in him. “It’s not a crisis in confidence or a warning shot,” the official said, adding it would be difficult to fire Fauci.

Under federal law, Trump doesn’t have the power to directly fire Fauci, a career civil servant, and remove him from government. And while Trump could try ordering his political appointees to dismiss the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Fauci could appeal — a time-consuming process.
The President does, however, have the power to sideline Fauci, keeping him away from press briefings and media interviews — as has happened in recent weeks, though Fauci has proven adept at pushing his message through different channels.
