Many of the people that are talked about in Bob Woodward’s new book came out in defense of the President.

Of course, Donald Trump also responded:
The Woodward book has already been refuted and discredited by General (Secretary of Defense) James Mattis and General (Chief of Staff) John Kelly. Their quotes were made up frauds, a con on the public. Likewise other stories and quotes. Woodward is a Dem operative? Notice timing?

The already discredited Woodward book, so many lies and phony sources, has me calling Jeff Sessions “mentally retarded†and “a dumb southerner.†I said NEITHER, never used those terms on anyone, including Jeff, and being a southerner is a GREAT thing. He made this up to divide!
