Bob Woodward questioned whether President Donald Trump was even capable of grappling with reality, after spending hours speaking to him about the coronavirus and other important topics.
The veteran journalist appeared Wednesday on MSNBCs Morning Joe, where he discussed his new book, Rage, that reveals the president lied about the threat from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Woodward wondered whether the president actually understood the difference between his own lies and the truth.
Does he understand what a fact is and what is the reality we are dealing with? Woodward said. This is a moving train, the pandemic, and its speeding up, as all the experts, [including] Dr. [Anthony] Fauci, say its going to converge with the regular flu. You know, we are confronting a health hailstorm in the coming months, according to the experts, according to the models that were facing. Do we have a president, just in this time, who can kind of say, hey, lets have a plan again, time and time again, theres no plan. Theres a Trump tweet or an impulse.

My guess is no, Trumpy has no clue what a fact is.
But he will soon find out what "fucked" is.
