Donald Trump is in trouble, and he needs a distraction. First stop, a projection. Change the subject. Look over there. He was supposed to make it big time with Bob Woodward, through his confessions about coronavirus.

So Trump confessed to Robert Woodward that he knew coronavirus was an air-born deadly virus way back in January. Lied, saying it was a hoax. Didn’t even suggest wearing a mask that could have saved thousands and thousands of lives.
