difference if he'd taken the threat more seriously and conveyed it to the public.

That being said ... it's probably mostly his supporters that would've been saved from needless death due to their stupidity in trusting IQ45/Faux over actual experts.

So there's that.

Subtext: “Why didn’t Woodward save the country from me?!”

Fuck it, is right.

It’s everybody’s fault but HIS. As-fucking-usual.

Reporters there should not let up on this today. Make him run out of the room. Stop letting him get away with this bullshit! Enough!

Trump didn't know who Woodward was and wasn't familiar with his work prior to sitting for these interviews? ...and not a single "reporter" questioned him on this? Look, I understand that these reporters have a list of questions they want to get to but Christ. THINK ON YOUR FEET! Debating policy positions with this pidgeon will get you exactly nowhere. He needs to be exposed as a lying ignoramus each and every day.

18. "tRump is blaming Woodward."

These wackadoodles don't know who to blame. I read on "one of them sites" Woodward stated that Mattis and Coates were planning to over throw the tRump gov't. Then in the next post they are saying Woodward's book is full of lies. Make up you mind, child.
BTW the only mention of the virus is how many friends and relatives got it and it's no big deal.. It's just a different strain of the flu.. Oh yes... masks don't work.. These peeps are in total denial.. YMMV

Trump was telling BW how he saved the ass of the Saudi dude who killed a WAPO journalist

Doesnt BW work for the WAPO as a journalist?

Did he just set there tossing Trump's salad during this exchange?
