Donald Trump told Bob Woodward that he wanted to bridge the country's political divide by using the holiday to wish everyone good fortune.
We have two Americas out there. The audiobook "The Trump Tapes" contains Woodward's interview with the president for his book "Rage."
The president of two Americas is divided. It's not your job to bring them together. Isn't your job to get them back together?
He said he would like to do that. He said that the biggest problem he has for doing that is saying Merry Christmas to everyone. The biggest problem is the media, but I would love to do it.
The anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, as well as Christmas and New Year's, were all used by Trump to send greetings to his followers. He was banned from the social networking site after inciting the U.S Capitol riot.
Woodward spoke with Trump on Wednesday.
