According to Woodward, Old Joe believes his courtiers have been disloyal to him and are plotting against him behind his back. Among the revelations:
- Hates Merrick Garland and Hunter Biden: Furious Joe Biden regrets choosing Attorney General Merrick Garland to lead the Justice Department after the agency prosecuted his son Hunter... According to the book, Biden moaned, “This is never going to f—king go away” about his son’s longstanding legal problems, including three felony and six misdemeanor tax charges, which he pleaded guilty to in September. Woodward also describes a scene between the president and his spoiled son at the White House in spring 2022. While the president was having dinner with a friend, Hunter came in and claimed it was he who had the most to lose from the midterm elections. “Hunter rambled on about his personal crisis. President Biden leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and sighed,” Woodward writes.
Hates Obama: Ahead of Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Biden blamed Obama for not stopping Putin’s 2014 annexation of Crimea. “They f–ked up in 2014,” Biden told a friend, according to Woodward. “That’s why we are here. We f–ked it up. Barack never took Putin seriously.” Biden added, “We did nothing. We gave Putin a license to continue!”
Hates Israel: President Biden blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu as a “bad f–king guy,” as Israel’s war on Gaza intensified, Woodward alleges. “Bibi, what the f–-k?” Biden yelled in July this year after an Israeli airstrike killed a top Hezbollah military commander and three civilians in Beirut, according to Woodward. “You know the perception of Israel around the world increasingly is that you’re a rogue state, a rogue actor,” the president said to Netanyahu. Netanyahu responded that the target was “one of the leading terrorists.”
The book also details how Donald Trump has continued to unofficially negotiate on behalf of the the United States with various countries due to the out-of-their-depth incompetence of the Biden amateurs who have been deer-in-headlights since taking over in 2021.
- The book also recounts a meeting that Lindsay Graham had with the crown prince in March. “Hey, let’s call Trump,” Graham said to MBS while visiting with the Saudi leader in March. Woodward writes that bin Salman had an aide bring over a bag with about 50 burner phones, pulling out one labeled “TRUMP 45.” Among the others in the bag, Woodward writes, was a burner labeled “JAKE SULLIVAN” — Biden’s National Security Advisor.
