Don-a-booey! Guess who successfully prank called Trump on Air Force One?
Another example of the ineptitude of Team Trump:
Wednesday night, as President Trump made his way to Wisconsin and then Washington, D.C. following a rally in North Dakota, he returned a phone call from Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez. For several minutes, the two lawmakers discussed Trump’s abusive child separation policy, as well as his plans to fill Justice Anthony Kennedy’s soon-to-be-vacant seat on the Supreme Court.
Such conversations are, for good reason, private.
And yet, you can listen to the entire exchange below for yourself.
Why?
Because the president of the United States, using state-of-the-art military equipment aboard the most secure airplane in the known universe, instead returned the phone call of a prankster with a podcast.
The prankster, it turns out, is a Howard Stern Show distinguished alumnus.
John Melendez — better known as “Stuttering John” to longtime fans of The Howard Stern Show, where he worked in various on and off-air capacities for more than 15 years — decided he would try to get Trump on the phone during a recent episode of his new podcast. As you might expect from a 90’s-era shock jock based in New York City, Melendez has a history with the Trump family, and recounted past instances of phoning the self-proclaimed billionaire for casual chitchat.
The conversation, which was surprisingly substantial, even ended with the immortal words “Ba-ba-booey to ya!”, a reference to Stern sho producer Gary dell’Abate’s nickname.
