āI wouldnāt want to throw him under the bus, but yes.ā
Normally, I wouldnāt like the idea of him doing that. In this case, Iāll make an exception. Throwing Cohn under the bus seems like a generally good idea. A public service, even.
How is this a story?
Thatās hilarious I donāt want to say thatās what he didā¦but thatās what he did
donāt be a damned idiot and gloat
Indeed. Iād even go further to say it needs to happen (figuratively, of course) to everyone who has been hired by the Whitehouse since inauguration day. If we excluded positions that arenāt part of governing (custodial staff, etcā¦), no innocents would be harmed; if you said yes to a job under donnie, youāre pretty much an asshole by definition.
I think the point was that a phone call from POTUS was a waste of everyone elseās time. They needed to find a pretext to get the man-child off the phone without sending him off to sulk with another tweetstorm.
Itās a point
Everyone hates Trump
Everyone
Especially those who work with him.
If they say they like him, they are lying
What?! I canāt hear you. There must be something wrong with the phone.
Trump already hates Cohn.
Iām expecting Trump to order Gary to hold a press conference denying the charges.
yes, but smart people donāt reveal their tactics
I am wondering what Cohn has done to Carper to deserve this. It will probably cost him his job. That is pretty damn harsh and worse for Carper because nobody is ever going to trust Carper to keep a secret again.
Boo-hoo.
Oh, but losing reception on a cellphone is an evergreen excuse. It happens often enough in reality (or maybe my friends have been making up those ādead spotsā in their houses, come to think of itā¦)
Itās absolutely a story and it provides an especially clear and cogent anecdotal illustration of not just how irrelevant Trump is, but how he actively impedes any kind of adult effort.
Heāll order Kelly to hold a presser where HE denies it happened. And instruct Sanders to bring up Bill Clinton if sheās asked about it.
Thereās an app for that:
Product description
The FAKE BAD SIGNAL is an application that is activated during a phone call, incoming or outgoing.
By pressing āstartā, the Fake Bad Signal gives the other party the impression that you are in a location with weak signal strength (by making sound interruptions) and thereby force him to hang up.

How many more examples do we need? At any rate, they should have let him stay on the phone call. It isnāt as though heās likely to follow through on any decisions or agreements made during the meeting.
