Bob Woodward sat on this audiotape for 7 months

[Bucky]

62. Things don't happen overnight in politics. Not literally

Trump doesn't act alone. He has circles of enablers, toadies, and water bearers.

And in case you didn't notice from the dozens of Republican officials supporting Joe Biden, Trump's lies and deceptions do have a cumulative effect.

But as I've discovered over the course of this discussion thread, my real complaint is that people who deserved to be warned with this fairly damning evidence didn't get warned about those tapes, because Woodward wanted to sit on the story till the "right moment".

So I respect your right to be cynical about human nature and assume it wouldn't have saved any lives. It's certainly more dramatic with the news coming out 8 weeks away from the election.

I'm at about a lot of things and I don't like Bob Woodward giving Trump's enablers even temporary comfort and shelter. If it had been a couple of months, it wouldn't bother me so much. A reporter needs to get the story right. I just don't think the 6 months (counting from the March "I wanted to play it down quote&quot is justifiable.
