    Anyhow, it’s “raporter”.

    Listen to him next time, that’s how Woodward has always pronounced it.

    If you’d spilled the beans back then, Bob, you wouldn’t have sold as many books.

    Does Donny Boy think that the Diet Coke can he’s speaking into is a mic? Yes… yes I do believe he is that stupid.

    Trump is a well documented liar and everyone already know it, so BW is stupid thinking there is a big story, but BW is also being irresponsible for not reporting sooner that Trump is a liar. Is that the gist?

    What is sad is that there are still enough people in this country that believe Trump and he still has a shot at reelection, not to mention elected in the first place.

    He brought down Nixon quicker…..but it was the Republicans themselves that turned on Nixon. These Republicans did not and will not turn on Trump…..if the crap exposing Trump didn’t stop him in 2016 putting out his book back then would by now not even be noticed. All kinds of folks say Trump is unfit but he is not that far behind Biden. There is history in this…..the rise of a failed artist in Germany.

    All things considered I’ll trust Woodward over Trump, anywhere, any time.

    Woodward withheld vital information that could have saved tens of thousands of live, but he chose to sit on the information for reasons as ludicrous as the Capo’s claim that he didn’t want to panic Americans—this BS from a wannabe despot WHO SPECIALIZES IN TRYING TO PANIC AMERICANS FOR HIS OWN POLITICAL BENEFIT. From my perspective, Woodward was a spent force BEFORE he got the series of recorded interviews with the Capo. Indeed, my guess is that Woodward GOT the series of interviews BECAUSE he was RECOGNIZED by the Capo’s enablers as a spent force, a has-been trading on his long-ago laurels, a hollow vessel that makes only a meaningless loud noise. Woodward should slink away quietly. His colleagues KNOW that he sat on vital information with the intent of profiting greatly when it came time for the great revelation. His greed cost lives, thousands and thousands of lives. Shame does not enter HIS OWN WORLD of arrogance and narcissism. In that respect, he is just as culpable as the Capo and a de facto enabler of that POS. His book is a prime example of the full meaning of the axiom “a day late and a dollar short”—Shame, Shame, Shame on Robert Woodward, a modern-day Judas Iscariot to the American People.

    Americans have conveniently short memories – particularly when it comes to Trump’s atrocious lying and egregious behavior. Had Woodward gone public back then, it would have been forgotten by the public within a news cycle.

    The sane citizens of the United States have been so benumbed and inured to the atrocities committed by Trump and his fascist handlers that they will be unable to resist the final dismantling of democracy after the elections when the Trump final takeover – orchestrated by William Barr, using the Justice Department, Homeland Security, and compliant elements of the military and police – will finally install Putin’s Pawn as the U.S.President for Life!

    Mr Woodward is an Eisenhower republican. He can put country over party, but only when it suits him. And his wallet.

    The problem with people whining about Woodward sitting on information (whether about Li’l Donnie’s incompetence, laziness, PLUS dishonesty about COVID—or whether about Putin having compromising material on Li’l Donnie) is that intelligent people already KNEW this! Same deal with the impeachment: not only did former chief of staff Mulvaney confess about Li’l Donnie’s bribery and extortion, he was so petulant that he claimed “Everybody does it.” And of course, Li’l Donnie HIMSELF confessed! Once again, yet again, intelligent people knew it. But only one Republican Senator (Mitt Romney) was honest and patriotic—which intelligent people predicted.

    Everyone knew he was lying then except for his cultists. The book just gives us his rationalization of the moment. Nothing will change the cultists’ minds. Releasing the information then wouldn’t have made any difference.

    If you think seven months is too long to wait for the revelations, start your own book today and let us know in seven months where we can buy it. You think these things write themselves?

    if Biden wins, his failure to prosecute T666p will mean the rule of law is dead.

    Everybody has known all along that the Creature was lying. Almost everybody.
