The Trump Tapes: Bob Woodward's Twenty Interviews with President Donald Trump is a 2022 nonfiction audiobook of 20 interviews between journalist Bob Woodward and Donald Trump conducted from 2016 to 2020.[1] In addition to the interviews between Woodward and Trump, The Trump Tapes also includes the raw transcripts of 27 letters between Trump and North Korean Chairman Kim Jong Un, 25 of which were previously obtained by Woodward in 2020 for use in Rage.[2] In total, the book contains around 11 and a half hours of audio.[3] Originally released as an audiobook, the transcript was later published in both print and digital formats.
Trump sued Woodward and Simon & Schuster in late January 2023, arguing that the published tapes violated his copyright. The author and publisher responded that the lawsuit did not have merit, as the interviews had Trump's consent and were on the record.[4]
