Why did President Trump speak to Bob Woodward?
More from the "Rage" author, including why the president's intelligence team said he is a "threat to the national security."

Why, some wondered, would the president agree to any interview with Woodward—let alone speak with him 18 times?

Trump knew that he was being Tape Recorded so, he knew what he was doing.
