Stolen Trump Documents See Light of Day in Woodward Book
'TRADE IS BAD': Trump's private scrawlings are revealed in documents stolen off his Oval Office desk that ended up in Bob Woodward's bombshell book in massive White House security breach
A letter stolen from Donald Trump's Oval Office desk by his top economic adviser to stop him from ending a trade deal with South Korea is published in full in Bob Woodward's bombshell book on the president.
Woodward also obtained a copy of the astonishing note that President Trump wrote in the margins of a speech he was poised to deliver: 'TRADE IS BAD.'
The president never uttered the words, but Woodward says the phrase is the 'truest expression' of Trump's 'protectionism, isolationism and fervent American nationalism.'
Trump planned to make the assertion during a speech that Woodward says he was working on en route to the United States from the G20 summit in 2017.
It's not clear from the book why he never did, unlike the formal notification to South Korea that Trump was unilaterally ending its trade deal, which Cohn and ex-staff secretary Rob Porter are said to have kept away from the president.
