First preview of Woodward's forthcoming book:

 

So after Woodward’s last book, Trump knew he couldn’t denigrate a respected journalist of his character, so instead he claimed that the sources were all lies and Woodward never got the real story from the Donald himself because Woodward did not interview him directly. So Woodward goes to Trump this time saying he wants the real story and can he tape Donald so everything is accurate, so Trump bites because his ego can’t be controlled, and Woodward gets all the dirt from Donny himself. No way Trump can claim mis-quote or fake news here. I almost think Woodward was playing the long con and the first book was just a set up to get Trump on record this time to sink him. Don got played like a fiddle.

Trump couldn't help himself.   Looking at Woodward as a fellow celeb, he just couldn't.  Or was trying to massage a better result, on this book, than Woodward's first book, because after all...Trump is so much smarter than anyone.

Pretty sure that people around Trump had a seizure, finding out that there was 30 hours of interviews on tape. 

As far as the content - it simply provided some confirmation that Trump and his administration was spinning, deflecting and outright lying about the virus, right from the get go.  Or if you like....the normal modus operandi.

Plenty of people around these parts have figured this out already.

From Trump's twisted point of view, it made sense.  Having thousands of Americans die, by withholding crucial information about the virus wasn't as important...... as say a potential trade deal (win) with China, and preventing a panic......... of the stock market. 

Sick.

'It has been obvious ever since Trump first ran for president that many of his core supporters actually hate the people who hate Trump, more than they care about Trump or any particular action he takes, no matter how awful'. Thomas Friedman

I took this from his opinion piece entitled: Who Can Win America’s Politics of Humiliation?

I found this particular statement, although maybe obvious to some, really insightful.

Unrealistic to expect cult members to denounce the leader, no matter what he says and does.    But, the galling part is that there are plenty of Republicans who recognize the danger.....but who lack total understanding of what Trump is doing to that country, or more importantly, the intestinal fortitude to address it.

The GOP currently stands for nothing....

I guess it’s called Fox network because Looney Tunes was already taken...

 

Between watching Fox, golfing, stuffing junk food down his pie hole and sitting on the can rage tweeting he has no time to do anything else and it shows as he has created a mess that will take years to correct

Watched the Fox panel explaining how Trump ignoring reality with the virus, and lying to the people, this avoiding "panic"...... was actually some form of enlightened leadership.   According to Tucker Carlson, Trump's comments to Woodward was actually L. Graham's fault.....for "allowing" the interviews to take place. 

Fox can kill brain cells, so I have to carefully limit my dose....

It’s not always easy to see the whole picture when Trump is involved and believability is always an issue with him, but I suspect this professional (Woodward) would do his fact checking first, and get all his information in line before he drops this huge bombshell on America.

Trump doesn’t even realize..

Donald Trump has been widely mocked after playing Creedence Clearwater Revival‘s ‘Fortunate Son’ when arriving at a campaign rally in Michigan. (“Some folks are born, silver spoon in hand”)

The 1969 track was released at the height of the Vietnam war and offers a scathing take on military deferments and the safe positions that were offered to well-connected individuals at a time when millions of Americans were being drafted to the front line.

Singer John Fogerty previously said of the track: “The song speaks more to the unfairness of class than war itself. It’s the old saying about rich men making war and poor men having to fight them.”

Almost as ironic as Donald Trump posing as a "law and order" President
