Whoa! Read the screen grab. ‪Ian Bassin‬: This is just wild on how The Atlantic interviewed #Trump. I mean, does anyone pick up unknown numbers anymore *other* than the President of the United States?

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social Football players waiting to be drafted are more cautious about answering their phones than our President.

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social Picking up the phone for random numbers is a very boomer thing to do.

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social OLD PEOPLE! Old people pick up unknown numbers. My mother-in-law reported having the nicest chats with people from unknown numbers —usually solicitors who’d weasel a donation out of her, but I bet she got her money’s worth! Ps— trump is probably TERRIFIED of missing that call from China …

  • @GottaLaff@mstdn.social well, it could've been someone wishing to get trump to agree to something they needed for a certain price.....he won't EVER turn away a call like that, so he is gonna answer the phone.

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social I guess when every call you get comes from a burner phone, you have to pick up unknown numbers?

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social I remember how, in his first term, trump was given a secured White House phone, but he couldn't figure out how to tweet with it. He went back to using his old personal Android phone. I think staff finally got rid of the Android, but per many reports he continued to use unsecured phones on and off throughout his first 4 years. He is woefully stupid, stubborn, and simply does not care.

    @GottaLaff@mstdn.social Putin calls from burners, so he has to answer unknown numbers..

  • @GottaLaff@mstdn.social To be fair, it might have been Putin. He always calls from an unlisted number. /s
