re: Trump sues Bob Woodward for nearly $50M over release of interview recordings

I dont think he's doing it for anyone but him, but thats why hes doing it. You dont think he's going to sit back and let a hit piece author profit off of his these recordings after the book sales dry up? Not when he can fire another shot across the media's bow. That's classic Trump.

Agreeing to sit down with Bob frickin Woodward of all people is stupid.

It depends. If the pending book is a known hit piece and its getting published with or without your cooperation, it wouldn't be the worst idea to go on record, recorded, and challenge the premise of the book. And it likely worked. The only red meat the media got out of that book was the "downplay" revelation and that fell apart when Fauci got exposed. It could have been much worse and filled with speculation had Trump not sat.
