About this listen
The Trump Tapes is the intimate and astonishing audio archive of Bob Woodward’s 20 interviews with Donald Trump.
Featuring more than eight hours of Woodward/Trump conversations, The Trump Tapes is as historically important as the Frost/Nixon interviews. In this up-close, unvarnished self-portrait of Trump and his presidency, listeners will hear Trump as Woodward did: profane, incautious, divisive, and deceptive, but also engaging and entertaining, ever the host and the salesman, trying to sell his presidency to win Woodward over.
Relying on familiar devices – airing grievances, stoking divisions, repeating himself to a staggering degree, as if saying something often and loud enough will make something true – Trump uses his voice as a concussive instrument, pounding in the listener’s ear.
In new commentary created exclusively for The Trump Tapes, Woodward at times breaks frame from the interviews to provide essential context or clarification. But for the most part the interviews proceed uninterrupted, fulfilling Woodward’s goal of presenting Trump’s voice and words for the historical record, and offering listeners the chance to hear and judge and make their own assessments.
As relevant as ever to the task of understanding Donald Trump, The Trump Tapes reveal Trump in his own words – a man consumed by the past and clinging to his grievances, unable to understand his responsibilities as president or address the crises affecting the country.

Like a toddler high on Coke & Haribo, he just can't stay on topic, goes off on bizarre rants, can't, or refuses to, answer a question.
during seemingly important questions about the pandemic, or nuclear weapons, or the danger of Russia, he just talks utter nonsense before going on endless rants about being the greatest person, the best Bob, the best.
it's a disgrace that this man was ever allowed into national Gov't.

The tapes cover the arrival of covid and the run up to the election.
On several occasions I had to check that I hadn't accidentally rewinded the audio book, but it was just Babybollocks repeating himself, again.
On the whole it was an interesting listen, but uncomfortable to recall he was the president of America.
