This is a blatant example of the "straw man" tactic. Make an untrue statement to argue about. Nobody said Rump defunded the CDC! He did eliminate the global pandemic response team put in place specifically to battle things like the covid-19 outbreak.

Correct. The CDC has not been defunded. The pandemic response team was disbanded.

The point is that you said no one has asserted that the President defunded CDC but two of the loudest voices in the Democratic Party said it...
