Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Legendary Watergate reporter Bob Woodward on Tuesday remembered what President-elect Donald Trump told him in 2016 about his idea of power and explained what it could mean for Americans during Trump’s second term. “That’s something Trump realized eight years ago, maybe all of his life, and realizes now, you have to scare people,” Woodward added.
