No Calls for Seven Hours? Trump Was Having a Nap?

[MineralMan]

Maybe he was terminally constipated and sitting on the pot, straining. Or he might have forgotten to charge his burner phone. Or the person who bought the burner phones didn't buy enough time, and they all ran out of minutes. Or...

You know there has to be a reasonable explanation for that gap, right?

[milestogo]

1. He was committing a crime.

[spanone]

2. He was too busy trying to overturn the lawful election of Joe Biden to take any calls....

Insurrectioning is hard work.

[MineralMan]

4. Sure. Could be that, too.

6. Typical trump, disrespecting the Jan6 committee by submitting those logs.

Giving them the proverbial finger. The outrageousness was the purpose.

3. "Russia, if you're listening --

Maybe you could solve this mystery?

7. Nixon failed the 18 1/2 Minute Gap Test--Trump is bound to win this one!

because reality is broken???

I'm skeptical anything will come of this, although it should explode all over the Rape-Publicans like a pink glitter bomb.

8. He was spanking the mushroom as he watched the assault on the Capitol unfold.

9. Eww...Where's my brain bleach?

10. To be fair (I hate saying that...)

While a several hour gap raises alarms, he did take some time to film a speech, which took several takes because he’s a moron and wouldn’t condemn the riot forcefully enough… That’s a couple of hours there.

The rest of the time he’s on the hook for, though, and we know for a fact from other people’s phone records that he was on the phone a lot during that time.

11. It's so hard to be facetious on DU...

Sheesh...

12. Based on what I know about trump, the stable genius, he was in a quiet room

planning his presidential library and preparing his thank you speech for the acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize he was going to win. Also, he was probably, finally, composing his concession speech and then saying a quiet prayer. He then had a cup of herbal tea with finger sandwiches while listening to W. A. Motzart- Symphony No. 41 (1788).

[MineralMan]

13. Ahh...I hadn't considered that.

He was a busy man, for sure.

[louslobbs]

14. For sure.

N/T

[Stuart G]

15. Yes, he was busy .....should not say this...it is a hide obviously.."PLAYING WITH HIMSELF"

SORRY...HAD TO ADD THAT ONE....YES..OFFENSIVE BUT MAYBE A LAUGH OR TWO?.. .WE NEED ALL WE CAN GET!!

[MineralMan]

16. No hide. Besides someone already has him "spanking the mushroom"

upthread.

[Stuart G]

17. Sorry I had missed that one...OK...ain't the first time, ain't the last...

18. Dereliction of duty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump defenders have a limited choice of defenses,, incompetency or criminality.

Dereliction of duty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

20. Whether he did something

or did nothing, it's just as bad IMHO. One of our branches of government was under attack and the guy who was so aggressive with BLM protesters the summer before did nothing to stop it for hours and it's not even clear that he did anything in the end other than tweeting out his love for his peeps and telling them to go home. But I don't buy that he wasn't still working the phones trying to get Senators in line to object to the certification. In fact, don't we know for sure that he was trying to call people? He was certainly on the phone with McCarthy and didn't he mistakenly place a call to a Senator that was meant for another? Guilty as sin.

19. If he had gone to the page with the Tracfone promo codes, this wouldn't have happened.
