    For younger people who don’t know the name, Bob Woodward is the guy who covered Watergate.

    >While a reporter for *The Washington Post* in 1972, Woodward teamed up with [Carl Bernstein](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Bernstein), and the two did much of the original news reporting on the [Watergate scandal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watergate_scandal).[^([3])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Woodward#cite_note-BBC_News-3) These scandals led to numerous government investigations and the eventual resignation of President [Richard Nixon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Nixon). The work of Woodward and Bernstein was called “maybe the single greatest reporting effort of all time” by longtime journalism figure [Gene Roberts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Roberts_(journalist)).[^([4])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Woodward#cite_note-4)

    He’s the guy Robert Redford played in All The President’s Men.

    He does not write bullshit or hearsay.

    If Trump wins, it will be because the media played false equivalency crap with their coverage.

    Like, Trump lied about Hatian immigrants stealing people’s dogs and eating them, but Tim Walz said he went to China in May of 1989 when it was actually August of 1989, so that’s basically the same.

    He’s such a traitor. And such a TOOL! The guy who thinks he’s Mr Make A Deal. He’s Mr I Am A Fool.

    I find it hard to believe Putin entertains the idea of Trump as anything other than a useful idiot. I mean, how great was it to watch Orange Boy spouting off about how he would get the prisoners in Russia back on day one or even before. Then to see Biden and Harris standing on the tarmac on US soil with them. That moment was pure gold. Trump can’t keep his mouth shut about anything, and I seriously can’t remember him saying a word about it. So phone calls or not, he certainly kicked Trump in the balls on that one.

    Logan Act violation. When will the Justice Department deal with this sort of shit!

  6. “You know not to call me at work. I actually have a country to run into the ground. Can’t you just call Kim Jong or someone else?”

  7. What’s even more terrifying and entirely likely is Trump had at least seven private phone calls with “someone” that has convinced him he is Putin.

    It would appear that Putin has retained the services of Agent Orange for future operations harmful to the USA.

    It’s amazing how easily people jump onto “orange man bad” without digging into anything.

    The Logan Act only prohibits deals and negotiating on behalf of the US. There’s no proof he is or isn’t doing this.

    Additionally, former presidents aren’t legally allowed to interact with other nations leaders per the constitution.

    Every former president has had contact with foreign leaders. Most famously Reagan with Gorbachev.
