Woodward White House book portrays officials trying to rein in Trump

A new book about the Trump White House describes a "nervous breakdown" within the executive branch. In "Fear," award-winning Washington Post editor Bob Woodward chronicles episodes like a Cabinet member removing documents from the president's desk so he wouldn’t sign them, to the chief of staff saying, "We're in Crazytown." Judy Woodruff talks with Robert Costa of the Washington Post.
