“Trump then suggested that Woodward should’ve taken it upon himself to alert authorities after stating his private concerns on COVID-19 to the legendary journalist.”
I don’t know what to tell ya. This clown has lost whatever bit of brains he had left. I think he resigns somehow by the end of the month.
It isn’t just that he lied about the severity of the threat – framing it that way doesn’t get to the sheer terribleness of it. It shows he lied, which is bad, but just the tip of the iceberg.
He downplayed the threat AND he blocked and hamstrung the people and strategies that could address it. So if he believed that the threat was bad, the question is notonly
Why did he lie about the gravity of the threat?
but also:
If he thought it was a serious threat, why did he keep government agencies from addressing it?
He’s just a freaking spittoon, full of crap nobody wants.
I’ll bet if Albert Einstein were talking to Trump he’d still think he knew more than Einstein about any sort of mathematics. And he’d call him PackRat Guy for his hair. Or Steven Hawking, he’d make some wheelchair joke.
I mean, “I had to verify the information” is pure BS. When a President says something, its newsworthy on its own, because if HE believes it, it matters. How many lies has Trump told – and how many have not been reported until the truth or falsity was verified?
At least Woodward could have claimed that the interviews could not be released until the book was published – that would make a certain amount of sense.
The obvious real answer is greed – if Woodward had gone public when Trump first said this stuff, it would have been the end of the book – and the end of a very lucrative book deal
Lookit Birx, she gulps as he says that. She shoulda quit right then, she wasn’t doing any good then, she isn’t doing any good now, and she trashed her reputation and standing by staying.
This ape is a literary critic now. You want to know if he can write good? Read one of his books, you brain-dead clown. You might enjoy “All the President’s Men.” I only read it once but I thought it was pretty good written. You might not enjoy it though, now that I think about it.
