SNEAKY Trump secretly sent Covid-19 testing machines to Vladimir Putin in the early stages of the pandemic when such resources were in short supply, the veteran reporter Bob Woodward reveals in an eagerly awaited new book.

CUNNING and DANGEROUS

According to Woodward, Trump secretly sent Putin a bunch of Abbott Point of Care Covid test machines for his personal use.

In response, the Russian president told his US counterpart: I dont want you to tell anybody because people will get mad at you.

Remarkably, Woodward also reports that the relationship between the two men, hugely controversial during Trumps first presidential campaign and subsequent four years in the White House, has continued since Trump has been out of power, through as many as seven private calls.

The revelations were among many published by US outlets on Tuesday, among them dramatic scenes of Joe Biden warning Putin not to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine and new reporting about how Biden was this summer convinced to step aside as the Democratic nominee for president, clearing the way for the vice-president, Kamala Harris, to challenge Trump in November.
Now 81 the same age as Biden Woodward has been a Washington institution since the 1970s, when his work with Carl Bernstein on the Watergate scandal led to Richard Nixons resignation as president. Following three scoop-filled books on Trumps presidency Fear, Rage and Peril, the last co-written with Robert Costa

Woodwards new book, War, considers key events under Biden including the Russian war in Ukraine, Israel?s war against Hamas, and political battles at home. It will be published next week.

Excerpts were released by Woodwards two employers, the Washington Post and CNN.

Though the US and Russia did share medical equipment such as ventilators in the early stages of the pandemic, Trumps decision to send Putin Covid testing machines would probably have proved hugely controversial if known.

Apparently recognizing this, Putin reportedly told Trump: Please dont tell anybody you sent these to me.
Trump said: I dont care. Fine.

Putin was said to have replied: No, no. I dont want you to tell anybody because people will get mad at you, not me. They dont care about me.

Trump lost the White House later in 2020 but, remarkably, Woodward says calls between the two men have continued. Earlier this year, Woodward writes, Trump ordered an aide to leave his office at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, so he could hold a private call with Putin.

Worries persist about Putins influence on Trump. Robert Mueller, the former FBI director who investigated links between Trump and Moscow around the 2016 election, concluding that Putin sought to help Trump defeat Hillary Clinton, recently said Russia would interfere again this year.

According to the Post, Woodward reports that Jason Miller, a close Trump adviser, responded hesitantly when asked about Trump and Putins continuing calls.

Um, ah, not that, ah, not that Im aware of, Miller reportedly said, adding: I have not heard that theyre talking, so Id push back on that.

Woodward adds that Avril Haines, Bidens director of national intelligence, carefully hedged?, saying: I would not purport to be aware of all contacts with Putin. I wouldnt purport to speak to what President Trump may or may not have done.

On Tuesday, Steven Cheung, Trumps communications director, said: None of these made-up stories by Bob Woodward are true and are the work of a truly demented and deranged man ? clearly upset because President Trump is successfully suing him because of the unauthorized publishing of recordings he made previously.?

That lawsuit concerns tapes of calls that Woodward released in 2022 and over which Trump sued the following year. Woodward has sought to have the suit dismissed.

Drama around Woodwards new book comes less than a month from the 5 November presidential election, when Trump could be returned to office. According to Axios, which cited sources who had seen Woodwards book, Woodward describes a 4 July White House lunch at which Antony Blinken, Bidens secretary of state, discussed with the president whether he should withdraw, given concerns about his age and fitness.

Three weeks later, Biden withdrew, a historic decision that has placed a spotlight on Trumps own age, 78, and mental state. In Woodwards judgment, according to the Post,

Trump was the most reckless and impulsive president in American history and is demonstrating the very same character as a presidential candidate in 2024.
