A new book by journalist Bob Woodward claims the former president maintained a close relationship with Putin even after leaving office.
In excerpts of the explosive book published on Tuesday by The Washington Post, where Woodward is an associate editor, he says Trump retains a personal relationship with Putin even as he campaigns for another term and the Russian president conducts a war against US ally Ukraine. With the coronavirus ravaging the world in 2020, Trump sent a batch of test kits to his counterpart in Moscow.
" Woodward has chronicled American presidencies for 50 years, and this is his fourth book since Trump's upset victory in 2016. He began his presidential reportages with Richard Nixon, who was undone by the 1970s Watergate scandal exposed by Woodward and Post colleague Carl Bernstein.
