The president basically asked to speak to the manager at AT&T — not that he knew who that was.
David Moye at HuffPost:
President Trump’s first name is, of course, Donald, but Karen seemed more appropriate based on his angry social media post on Monday. Trump was set to have a conference call with faith leaders from around the country, but it didn’t go to plan, according to a post on his Truth Social platform. “I’m doing a major Conference Call with Faith Leaders from all over the Country, and AT&T is totally unable to make their equipment work properly,” the president complained, adding that “this is the second time it’s happened.”
Trump then essentially asked to speak to the manager. “If the Boss of AT&T, whoever that may be, could get involved — It would be good. There are tens of thousands of people on the line!” he wrote. For the record, John Stankey is the “Boss of AT&T,” although his title is actually chairman and CEO.
Trump continued griping in a follow-up post, writing that “AT&T ought to get its act together,” and that “we may have to reschedule the call, but we’ll use another carrier the next time. AT&T obviously doesn’t know what they’re doing!”
Our entitled Karen of a “President” whines about AT&T outages interrupting his conference calls.
