Controversy Surrounding Bob Woodward Book

Unless anyone just woke up from a long nap under a rock it's common knowledge Woodward's new book claims Trump tried to downplay Covid19 knowing fully well how deadly it could become. Now comes the backlash. Why didn't Woodward say something?

The answer is simple. All the recorded interviews could be fought in court claiming Donald has invoked executive privilege over them. Surely as the day is long the White House would follow up with court actions claiming much of the information Donald disclosed is now considered to be classified information. Thus holding up not only the book but the public's knowledge of what Trump said. Quite possibility for an untold number of months beyond the election. Hell they still might try since the book isn't officially due to come out until September 15, 2020.

Fact-check: Did Joe Biden issue warning about the coronavirus in January?"Biden expressed concern about the coronavirus weeks before Trump did, and he recommended the Obama approach on Ebola, including international cooperation and the use of sound science, in January. He warned of the possibility of a pandemic several weeks before the WHO declared one, and predicted that there would be more cases in the United States. But while he spoke broadly in January about how the U.S. should approach the crisis, he did not offer a detailed plan until March 12, a day after the WHO declaration."

Let's keep in mind Biden said all those things without the benefit of the intelligence briefings Trump was continuously receiving. Trump in the meantime pulled his "wadda bout" deflection routine several times since. What about Obama/Biden response to H1N1? What about Obama Biden response to swine flu? What about Obama/Biden response to Ebola? Hey big guy in case you haven't noticed this is no longer the Obama/Biden administration. For the last 3 1/2 years you've been the head honcho. You own whatever happens on your watch. Start acting like it
