Trump’s Secret Covid Tests to Putin: New Revelations Uncovered

In a startling revelation from Bob Woodward's upcoming book, War, it has been disclosed that former President Donald Trump secretly sent Covid-19 tests to Russian President Vladimir Putin during the pandemic. This occurred at a time when the United States was grappling with a severe shortage of testing supplies. The book, set to be released on October 15, sheds light on Trump's controversial relationship with Putin, highlighting conversations between the two leaders even after Trump left office.

Woodward, a prominent journalist known for uncovering the Watergate scandal, details that Trump maintained a personal connection with Putin, which included at least seven phone calls since January 2021. According to sources, Putin, who is reportedly a germaphobe, requested that Trump keep the shipment of tests a secret, saying, "I want you not to tell anyone, people will be angry with you, not with me."

The implications of these revelations are significant, especially as they come amid ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine. Critics, including Vice President Kamala Harris, have expressed outrage over Trump's actions, questioning the morality of sending resources to a leader who is currently engaged in aggression against Ukraine while Americans struggled to access testing kits.

This controversy not only reignites discussions about Trump's past dealings with Russia but also raises concerns about his potential return to the White House in the 2024 elections. As Trump continues to campaign, the relationship he fostered with Putin remains a focal point, with fears about the future of Ukraine if he were to reclaim the presidency.
