not surprised CNN reports that Woodward's new book, entitled "War," claims that Trump "secretly sent Putin a bunch of Abbott Point of Care Covid test machines for his personal use."
What's more, writes Woodward, Putin urged Trump not to boast publicly about sending such equipment to him.
“Please don’t tell anybody you sent these to me,” Putin said, according to Woodward's sources.
“I don’t care,” Trump said in response. “Fine.”
“No, no,” Putin said. “I don’t want you to tell anybody because people will get mad at you, not me. They don’t care about me.”
And that's not all -- according to one of Woodward's sources, Trump kept in frequent contact with the former Russian president after leaving office.
“According to Trump’s aide, there have been multiple phone calls between Trump and Putin, maybe as many as seven in the period since Trump left the White House in 2021,” Woodward writes.
