Woodward writes that a Trump aide claimed there were at least seven phone calls between Trump and Putin since Trump left office. However, the Kremlin stated that this accusation is not true.

The Kremlin also claims that Russia sent COVID-19 equipment to the United States during the height of the pandemic.

Trump denies the book’s reporting.

“President Trump gave him [Woodward] absolutely no access for this trash book that either belongs in the bargain bin of the fiction section of a discount bookstore or used as toilet tissue,” Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung told Bloomberg.

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on “The Howard Stern Show” Tuesday, Oct. 8, saying people were scrambling to get their hands on COVID-19 tests in 2020.

“And this guy who is president of the United States is sending them to Russia, to a murderous dictator, for his personal use?” Harris said.

She also claimed that Trump aspires to be a dictator.

Meanwhile, Trump has repeatedly stated on the campaign trail that Putin would never have invaded Ukraine if he were in office, calling the Biden-Harris administration “weak.”

“War” is due out on bookshelves Oct. 15.
