Regular readers of the L.A. Times letters page understand that perhaps no other politician is held in lower esteem by our readers than President Trump. Also coming under fire is Woodward, who recorded his interviews in February and March but waited until September to report the president’s damning confessions. Trump knew of the coming pandemic and the deaths that would be certain to follow. Why did Woodward wait so long when an earlier disclosure might have saved thousands of lives and diminished great economic loss? Peggy Kravitz also directs criticism at Woodward:Why did Woodward sit on the information that the president knew how serious the virus was for six months?
