Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and best-selling author Bob Woodward talks about his explosive new book “Rage,” what he learned about President Trump in the eighteen exclusive interviews he conducted with him, and what he fears in the coming presidential election.
Since breaking the fateful story of Watergate in 1972, Bob Woodward has been at the top of his field, twice winning the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism and writing 18 best-selling books. Woodward’s latest book, “Rage,” his second on Donald Trump, features 18 exclusive interviews with President Trump himself. In this episode, he discusses the explosive new book and what it says about President Trump, the balance between journalism and history, and his nearly 50-year career covering nine presidents.
