Tapper: What Trump said to make Woodward 'break glass in case of emergency' - CNN

[TexasTowelie]

CNN's Jake Tapper explains why veteran Watergate journalist Bob Woodward is sounding the alarm about former President Donald Trump ahead of the 2024 election.

1. Will part of the recordings of Trump be released on the audio version of this book?

I think that his voice with the inflections, the change of cadence, etc. would make it that much more compelling.

2. What I read in the LATimes this Monday was that all 20 tapes of the interviews are available to...

…the public. Woodward had the same feeling you: the full reality simply does not come across on the page, and people have to hear it for themselves.

The person who wrote the article said, “Woodward sounded…spooked.”

Trump, of course, is calling Woodward “sleazy,” and claims the tapes belong to him, and is suing Woodward.

4. re: "Trump, of course, ... claims the tapes belong to him"

Of course he does. EVERYTHING belongs to him.

3. AFAIK it's ONLY an audio book, and its not part but ALL of the recordings.

The point of this release is very much what you're saying, to hear the inflections, cadences, etc.
