Bob Woodward’s new alleged ‘bombshell’ book is another dishonest dud. It won’t take long for people to catch on. People are already contradicting Woodward’s book, people like Dr. Fauci.
John Roberts interviewed Dr. Fauci today and he contradicted the “blockbuster” indictment against the President.
Dr. Anthony Fauci is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. He told Roberts, “I didn’t get any sense that he was distorting anything. In my discussions with him, they were always straightforward about the concerns that we had.”
Woodward had claimed the President dishonestly downplayed the pandemic while knowing the danger the disease presented. He played tapes of the President who said on one, “I wanted to, I always wanted to play it down. I still like playing it down because I don’t want to create a panic.”
Fauci disagreed with the characterization of the comments when Roberts asked him about any discrepancy between the President’s comments and what he knew.
“Um, you know, John, I really am hesitant to comment on that because I don’t know in what context we’re asking that question. I mean, obviously, when we would be speaking to the president we’d talk about the cold facts, he would get them.”
“You know, often he would want to, you know, make sure that the country didn’t get down and out about things, I don’t recall anything that was any kind of gross distortion in things that I spoke to him about,” Fauci concluded. “I don’t think he ever distorted things that I spoke to him about.”
Dr. Fauci was comfortable with how the president presented the threat of the pandemic to the public.
He also disputed comments Woodward attributed to him. That shouldn’t be a surprise. Woodward’s last book was called to task by people he quoted.
Watch:
Dr. Fauci disputes alleged quotes from him in Bob Woodward’s story that President Trump is “unfocused in meetings” and that “his sole purpose is to get re-elected.”

Woodward’s last anti-Trump book was full of lies also.
The media is creating a catastrophic lie out of something far less. On February 7th, it was still contained and he thought China could control it, as did the doctors and scientists. Yes, he said he thought it was going to go away but he also said it was dangerous.
If this was such life and death information, why did Woodward wait until now to tell Americans? He knew too.
The real question is did he go too far in trying to keep Americans from panicking? There were food shortages menacing and the risk of economic destruction. We have to Monday morning quarterback to decide if we think the President went too far or not far enough.
Let’s not forget the phony Dem impeachment hoax didn’t end until February 5th and it was very distracting. Democrats were also threatening and attacking the President over the China travel ban. That ban alone should have told Americans this was serious.
Listen:
This is President Trump on tape, on February 7, saying that the coronavirus is “more deadly than your – you know, your, even your strenuous flus.” But he minimized the threat in public. On February 26, he told the public “I think that’s a problem that’s going to go away.” pic.twitter.com/TOHTpqYtvZ

President Trump’s press secretary tried to explain it to the press but they don’t want to understand.

One hit wonder and has been, Bob Woodward struggling to remain relevant.
What’s the big deal with this, now. The press has been complaining saying the President isn’t taking is seriously enough, using death numbers in those “questions”. Nothing to see here.
Why would anyone even read this liars so called book he has a long history of out right lying and making crap up.This guy hates all republicans no matter who they are he went after Nixon like ugly on an ape no matter if it was true or not most of it was not.Same old same old big lie just before election thats the way this S.O.B. operates .
If a plane or ship is experiencing difficulties I want the captain to come over the loudspeaker in panic mode saying that we are all doomed.
Esteemed party member comrade Woodward is still coasting on the fumes of something he did 50 years ago.
Too bad so sad Bobbo but Trump is no Nixon. Maybe get back over to PBS or NPR and talk about the glory days with starry eyed ballwashers.
I couldn’t help but think of this.

The only sin Trump committed was letting that commie p.o.s. Woodward get within earshot of The White House.
The press and media are like arm chair quarterbacks who never played the game. If they did in high school or college likely spent more time as bench warmers.
Trump is not an eloquent speaker although I have heard him when he was. Trump’s speeches are sometimes called simple eloquence, the language of the people, hard working down to earth people; Who smug, arrogant, pompous, self absorbed dilettantes would say live ordinary lives. Yet, it’s these “ordinary” people who keep America’s wheels oiled and running. Without them the government would grind to a halt. Trump speaks to them , not at them. He also speaks for them. He keeps his word. It is what a truly successful person does, what a man of honor and action does. He rolls up his sleeves and gets it done.
That simple truth is obviously beyond Woodward’s comprehension or ability.
Nothing irritates me more than a person who attempts to qualify what another person means. Each and Every person uses words unique to themselves. The choice of words render certain meanings to that person, while others may choose different words. How often has one encountered a situation whereby a sentence is said, and another person interprets it in an entirely different way and replies, “Did you really mean such and such”. The first person will say no and have to explain in greater detail what was missed or misunderstood. Were the two speaking different English languages. The media is terrible in this regard in their attempts to “parse” other people’s words rather than asking, “Is this what you meant”. Of course there is the flip-side where they see what is said, which can be made to seem terrible on the surface but in reality is not. It’s the games people play now, mainly by the press.
The corrupt Main sewer Stream fake Media have perfected the art of interpreting what one means according to their perspective…Unfortunately there are many low information types that depend on them for their “knowledge(?)”…
Another Communist. More pure horse manure from a useful idiot.
