just thinking logistically, I imagine that happened a lot. Anyway I expect a decent number of his calls were made by aides and he just took the phone after they got through to the right person.
Im surprised the aides from each side didnt do all the logistics of connecting with one another and the president wasnt just handed a phone with the call already connected through.
That was the aides from Obama’s side calling 100%. The minister was newly elected, maybe fairly new to politics as a whole? Maybe he just doesn’t like middlemen. Edit: **Re-**elected, I missed that. I guess the second option then.
Its a news site but the only place you can find the date of the article is in the URL. Sometimes I am baffled by the weird design decisions people are making.

Lmao can you imagine President Obama having a call go to voicemail?

Even if it said “President Obama” many people would think it’s a prank.
Well to be fair I’d answer just to say “no you’re not!”

That’s what I was thinking, surely it was an aide who was dialing who’d only hand the phone to Obama when it actually connected to Key

It’s called USA Today. That means you’re only supposed to read the news that came out today.
Oh, so it happened today. Makes it a lot less interesting now that Obama is not a president and hasn’t been in years.
It says it right under the headline, no? Or maybe that’s only on the mobile layout or something.
Do you ever get the feeling you’re part of an A/B test?
I guess I should start answering… what if it’s Obama?
Definitely don’t ghost Obama. He’ll drone strike your house.
