The "transcript" contains only 10 minutes of dialogue. The whole call took 30 minutes. (Original Post) DetlefK Sep 2019 OP
18 minute gap. gibraltar72 Sep 2019 #1

When I did customer service, and I had a Spanish-speaking customer on the line, along with our interpretive service, each call took twice as much time. Everything has to be said twice, and sometimes repeated for clarity, such as when the interpreter was of a slightly different dialect than the speaker. Our interpretive service was based in California, where a more Mexican version of Spanish was used, and most of my Spanish speaking customers were Caribbean Spanish speakers.

If they were going to intentionally leave info out of the "transcript," somebody screwed up.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is stuff left out, it was trump bloviating about how great he is.
