Former U.S. President Donald Trump’s campaign lashed out at journalist Bob Woodward after he reported that Trump secretly sent Russian President Vladimir Putin a stash of COVID-19 tests at the height of the pandemic in 2020, when Americans couldn’t get them.
However, Bloomberg reports that Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov is confirming that Trump sent Putin the tests four years ago, while at the same time denying Woodward’s reporting that Trump and Putin have spoken multiple times since the ex-president the White House in 2021.

Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung suggested on Tuesday that Woodward lied about every single piece of information in his new book, which will be called “War.”
“None of these made up stories by Bob Woodward are true and are the work of a truly demented and deranged man who suffers from a debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome,” said Cheung, who provided no evidence to back up his claims. “Woodward is an angry, little man and is clearly upset because President Trump is successfully suing him because of the unauthorized publishing of recordings he made previously.”
What is Russia’s motivation for confirming this?
Confusion, or they now see trump as weak and useless and have changed tune. But probably just confusion.
Yeah this is really sus.
Where is the news source credibility bot and the summary bot? Have people banned it instead of just blocking it?
But Putin is afRAid of Trump, don’cha know.
The beauty of the electorate not giving a damn about being lied to is that you get to get to lie about anything and everything.
