“It was ‘like your 87-year-old senile grandfather’ wandering around the room, saying to women guests, ‘your eyes are so beautiful.’”

"Former President Trump's lawsuit is without merit and we will aggressively defend against it."

"The system barely held together."

"I said, 'Is that possible?'" Woodward asked.

Woodward believes Trump's approach likely hindered the United States' pandemic response.

Woodward also explained how the ban subsequently contributed to the COVID outbreak in New York.

Guthrie wanted to know why Woodward did not come forward months ago.

"The easy ones are the ones I maybe don't like as much."

Woodward reflected on Trump's stance at the beginning of the pandemic.

Trump goes on the attack when asked about his private admission that the coronavirus is deadly.

"He just flat lied."

"Nobody wants to cause a panic. We want to show leadership."

"Seems smart to me."

"I figured, you know, 'Let's give it a little shot.'"

"We have the smoking gun tape of the president committing the felony."

Trump told Bob Woodward about a secretive new US weapons system.

Trump said he wanted to "downplay" the virus.

His book, "Rage," will be released soon.
