In December 2019, after then-President Donald Trump had shared with journalist Bob Woodward the fawning letters that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had written to him, the U.S. leader seems to acknowledge he should not be showing them around.

After urging Woodward to “treat them with respect,” Trump warns in an interview, “and don’t say I gave them to you, okay?”

“But I’ll let you see them,” Trump adds. “I don’t want you to have them all.”

A month later, in January 2020, Woodward pressed Trump in a phone call to let him also see the letters that Trump wrote to Kim. “Oh, those are so top secret,” Trump says, according to notes of the call taken by Woodward and highlighted in a new audiobook: “The Trump Tapes: Bob Woodward’s Twenty Interviews with President Trump.”

1. Woodward

Woodward has had receipts on explosive things such as Trump knowing that severity of COVID-19 and purposely downplaying it to now sharing 3 years later of Trump exposing classified material.

Woodward is driven by book sales, just like many other folks in this space.

Shame

3. His letters to Kim were top secret because he gave away classified info to Kim?

4. I won't buy any of his books, and I've told my family and friends

not to buy them for me. Besides being a greedy, opportunistic hack, his writing is choppy, stilted, and boring.
