Bob Woodward, one half of the very Woodward and Bernstein pair that famously reported heavily on the Watergate Scandal, has written another book about Donald Trump’s presidency. Titled “Rage,” it is a sequel to his 2018 book, “Fear: Trump in the White House.”
Excerpts from “Rage” were released on Wednesday, some of which indicated President Trump was informed in early February about the problem COVID-19 had created in China and the seriousness of the outbreak, per CNN.
Among those frustrated with this development is Jamal Crawford, who took to Twitter to share his thoughts on Wednesday:
And this is the man some trust?!?!?! You’ve got to be kidding me. So many lives were LOST that he could’ve helped saved. HE KNEW this could happen and didn’t prepare or take it seriously. He downplayed it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crawford joined the Brooklyn Nets as a substitute player for the NBA’s restart of the 2019-20 season, though he only logged one six-minute appearance due to injury.
According to Marc Spears of The Undefeated, the Nets are expected to re-sign Crawford this offseason.
Woodward’s book is set to come out on September 15.
