The host of "The Stuttering John" podcast, John Melendez, got President Trump on the phone yesterday by pretending he was New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez. "This is how easy it is to infiltrate the administration," Melendez said in the episode.
This calls into question White House security. White House staff members are freaking out today trying to figure out how the podcast host was so easily transferred from the White House switchboard to Air Force One, per a source familiar with the call.
Melendez, the host, had three different interactions with two White House operators and got through two call screens before Jared Kushner called him from Air Force One. According to Melendez, Kushner asked if he wanted to talk to the president then or have them call him back later, which is what he did.

Pretty sure this is illegal..
And it should be, nobody should waste the US Presidents time with prank calls.
Like they didn't check the caller ID number.
They knew who it was and played along for kicks.

tit for tat dumbassery, and I shake my head. Then in looking through the responses,
.... If a thread is stupid, and all it does is cause fighting, you stepping in to fight for your side, isn't helping.
Laughing and walking away to a more productive thread, now that may help.
