The internet is going wild over a video clip from the end of President Trump’s daily Coronavirus briefing.
Before I explain that, let me give you the leadup.
During the briefing, President Trump got into a savage exchange with ABC’s Jon Karl. It was so epic, that many are calling it one of Trump’s biggest takedowns of a fake news reporter in a long while.

President Trump referred to Karl as a “third rate reporter” and told him he’d never “make it.”
You can watch the exchange below:
“You're a third-rate reporter. What you just said is a disgrace — you will never make it." @realDonaldTrump
I absolutely LOVED watching @jonkarl get DESTROYED in this presser🤣🔥#TrumpPressBriefing #EnemyOfThePeople

But it’s what happened afterward that has most people buzzing.
As the close of the briefing, Dr. Fauci exits the room last.
ABC’s Jon Karl “salutes” Dr. Fauci – which seems more than a bit odd, wouldn’t you say? And in turn, Fauci gives Karl a “good job” signal.
You can watch the video below:
(1) Fauci intentionally positions himself to exit last.
(2) ABC's Jonathan Karl salutes Fauci.
(3) Fauci returns gesture w/ 'good job' signal.
Seems like Fauci & Karl were coordinating the antagonism toward @realDonaldTrump today.

Many people found the exchange between the two men very odd and commented about it online.
“Leave him out of the briefings he never has anything new to say anyway”

“Naturally, he’s Hillary’s “Secret Weapon” after all.”

“Of course he was doing this. He works for the Deep State. We all know this right?”

“I would say that’s a bit more than the good job signal too…”
I would say that’s a bit more than the good job signal too…

Do you think it was just an odd buy innocent exchange between the two men or do you believe there is something more sinister at work?
