Bob, He has no other more noble part of himself to 'rise above' to. The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. His past behavior shows a consistent pattern. Yes, people, even old men can change, but ONLY if they want to. His more darker desires will triumph. I am a psychologist who worked in Corrections for 20 years. I have met many men with the same traits as Trump. Now, these traits will be unleashed.

I think Bob is hoping Trump will see this and be coaxed into being a decent President. There’s also the possibility of Bob trying to wangle more interviews for yet another book on the 47th U.S.President. Unfortunately, it’s a lost cause. The reality is, this is a catastrophic seismic shift in the global geopolitical balance. Nothing good is going to come from this. ‘Everything Trump Touches Dies’ - Rick Wilson (former Republican)

Bob's optimism regarding Trump does not hold true for a man in his late 70s - a man with serious mental health problems. He's clearly a malignant narcissist anyone remotely paying attention saw that years ago. It sounds like Bob is staving off Trump's desire for revenge, given Bob would be on that list. Personally, I hope those that voted for Trump feel pain - and soon. The sooner they do, the greater the chance that they realise that Trump is dangerous and they were totally conned. Trump was never the answer / solution for their problems, he clearly cares for no one but himself.

Sorry, but after having Trump on the scene for nearly 10 years and now another 4 years in the White House, I've given up on America. The fact that so many could want such a flawed man as their President again, demonstrates that America doesn't value ethics, morals or character. Trump will never change. Woodward thought Trump was going to lose so he could say whatever he wanted about Trump, however critical, in his last book. But now that Trump unexpectantly won, Woodward is selling out in order to get on Trump's good side by suddenly saying nice things. He wants the chance for another book on Trump.

Fame is attached to the big Buck earners (grabbers). Mr. Woodward kept very important information under wraps until his books were published, he has to live with that. Possibly his argument that Trump will change for the greater good is more hopeful thinking so he can be absolved of his selfishness.

He will stuff that up with his blanket tariffs policy that will increase the average household bills for families by about $4k per year. Mass deportations will have a significant impact on labour supply at a time when there is full employment. Trump is going to be the wrecking ball that will send the economy into reverse and create a recession.

Bob Woodward's wishful thinking reminds me of a story when a scorpion tries to convince a frog to help him crossing a pond. The frog knowing the scorpion, was very hesitant, and told the scorpion, I don't trust you won't bite me. No, no said the scorpion, I can't do that, then both of us would drown. Somehow this made sense to the frog and he agreed to let the scorpion ride on his back for the crossing. As they were in the middle of the pond, the scorpion bit the frog, and both drowned, but before dying, the frog asked the scorpion why he did it. "I couldn't help, said the scorpion, this is my inborn nature". I am sure this is how it will be with Mr. Trump. Hurting others is his inborn nature, and he can not change. The only way, ironically using Trumps own words, "fight like hell" for Americas constitution, democracy, and sanity!

When he talked about Trump's response to COVID, he finally started talking about Trump's true character. Most of this interview he seemed in denial about what a disaster this election result will prove to be.

Bob , What do you mean don't give up on Democracy ? Democracy is dead in the U.S.A., it can't be brought through an election in 2028, an election that won't take place. All dictatorships lasts for a very long time so the chance of someone my age (71) ever seeing Democracy again is remote at best.

People gave him a chance before. He’s declining now, not rising in his spiritual vibration. And he is now a puppet for the Heritage Foundation. I have doubts he can even fathom what an opportunity this is. He could right his horrendous legacy to be positive. I question if that’s even possible at this stage of his trajectory.

He won't change, but he will peg it one-day, and maybe the spell will break. When he is gone, if things get too bad, people will fight for their rights again, or not. Time will tell.

​@ozhimalayan477cc2 The one good thing about Trump is that his spell is non-transferable. Trumpist candidates, even when Trump himself has endorsed them, have been unable to ride his coattails (hello again Kari Lake). Vance might become president if Trump falls off the perch, but the Trumpist voters won't be ride-or-die for him the way they were for Trump.

I respectfully disagree. Psychiatrists indicate he cannot help but be a malignant narcissist-paranoid, sadistic, pathological lier, criminal, grandiose. You talk, Mr Woodward, as if he’s normal. He’s not. He CANNOT be anything else.

21:25 Trump can only do what Trump is capable of doing; we cannot imagine a snake can be anything but a snake. And we cannot blame the snake for being a snake. We can blame Americans for electing Trump into office again and when this creature who responds instinctively and vengefully only to circumstances he believes he can control, and ignores those situations he cannot imagine controlling, we will look at Americans and be cognisant of their dereliction of responsibility as ‘players’ on the world stage.

Bob Woodward is a good journalist when reporting facts. As an interpreter of those facts, he clearly has a blind eye to Trump's instincts and ability to listen and learn from others or from experience.
