If anything, this says less about security and more about the fact that all manner of crackpots, ghouls and conmen likely call and speak with Trump on a daily basis. At the beginning of the administration, I’ll bet the pros at the switchboard thought they were doing their jobs and weeding them out. But soon, Trump started hearing from his “friends” that they couldn’t get through and pitched a fit, so now the operators have tossed out all critical decision making skills and let pretty much anyone who can form a sentence through.
The end result of the Republican party dumbing itself down.
If you’re going to deny science, ignore statistics, and believe wildly implausible conspiracies, then you’re bound to nominate a clueless idiot who’s completely self-assured he’s always right, no matter what.
I’m amazed there aren’t more pranks like this, and fully expect to find out Trump and his staff have been hacked left and right by kids in Tulsa and Toronto and Taipei who were just screwing around.
When Obama was elected in 2008 conservatives like Hannity were adamant that he would make the country less safe, there would 9/11’s every month, Obama Youth Squads would take away everyone’s guns, his cabinet was filled with Maoists who would turn the US into a socialist nightmare within one term, and then he would suspect the Constitution to stay in office, etc. etc. Always remind your conservative friends/relatives about this: under Obama the economy returned to pre-2008 levels, and they caught bin Laden.
