If anything, with Trump, it’s better closer to the election. It doesn’t give people time to get comfortable with it and wash it away in their brains, and their campaign can only embarrass themselves by trying to yell “fake news” when the proof gets revealed like the COVID tests for Putin shit.

You know who needs to be compelled to fucking release the tapes? The guy who has the audio and video of Trump ranting on his stupid show and throwing around every kind of racial epithet he can muster. That fucker needs to post that stuff NOW.

Edit: had to find a more recent update on it, and this is all I could find: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2024/05/donald-trump-apprentice-n-word-tape-how-to-find.html

Please stop linking Bob-waits-for-an-election-to-publish-fucking-Woodward related shit. Too little too late for it.

To be fair, it’s not just Woodward. There are plenty of Trump’s former employees, associates, and friends who coincidentally only had bad things to say about Trump when they had a book that they had to promote. We possibly could have saved years of misery and maybe even succesfully removed Trump from office if even a few of these people had (a) spoken up sooner, and (b) didn’t have a financial stake in what they’re saying. One of the reasons that these revelations have had little to no real impact (or in some cases, actually boosted Trump’s popularity) is because people believe that they’re simply making the stories up to promote their book And given that 95% of these revelations come out right around the time someone has a new book to promote, I can’t blame them.

Don’t just blame Woodward. Blame all of them.
