This statement is hyperbolic nonsense:
"He single handedly dismantled the CDC when he became president[0]"
Few quotes you might have overlooked:
"repeatedly attempting to slash funding..."
" proposed a 20% cut to the CDC’s emerging and zoonotic diseases program"
Congress did not let this happen and has actually INCREASED the CDC budget.
The actual enacted program budgets for the CDC in 2016 and 2017 were both under $7.2 billion, but for 2020 the budget Congress adopted for it is nearly $7.7 billion.
