I have no idea how she rehabs her reputation.
Course, Trump fans need doctors too. As long as she doesn't mind advising science deniers, she's all set.

She probably knew that if she told the unvarnished truth, she would have been immediately fired by Trump and replaced by someone else even more deferential to Trump and willing to endorse any and all self-serving lies Trump told, however dangerous. She probably also knew that both she and her family would have been subject to death threats from Trump's idiot, sycophantic worshipers. I don't envy her position with relation to Trump.

Wish Dr. Birx had held her hands in a Macauley Calkin manner
when Trump asked her about sticking lights or injecting bleach into the human body to rid it of COVID-19.
How Dr. Birx should have reacted.
She was somewhere between a passive and an active Trump Insanity enabler.
by the way, this is also the appropriate reaction when Republicans say Trump should not be impeached.
