Trump is now going after Bob Woodward; here's why

Trump's an idiot. Woodward doesn't need consent, they are his tapes.

..."Trump has similarly sued multiple media companies, including CNN, for reports that he has viewed as unfavorable or disparaging.

In his lawsuit against Woodward, Trump claims that the author "decided to exploit, usurp, and capitalize upon President Trump's voice by releasing the interview sound recordings of their interviews," because "President Trump's voice is one of the most recognizable voices in the world."

"Former President Trump's lawsuit is without merit and we will aggressively defend against it," Woodward and Simon & Schuster said in a joint statement on Tuesday. "All these interviews were on the record and recorded with President Trump's knowledge and agreement."

Woodward and the publisher said the audiobook is in the public's interest because it serves as a historical record of Trump's own words.

"We are confident that the facts and the law are in our favor," they said."
