[quote]Speaking on CNN Wednesday, the Delaware Democrat recalled a recent conversation about tax reform between several administration officials, Cohn among them, and a handful of Democratic senators.

During the meeting, [b]Trump called in from Asia and began talking[/b], Carper said. After listening to the president ramble for far too long, Carper wanted to get back to the matter at hand.

“[b]Fifteen minutes later the president is still talking[/b] and I said to Gary — we’re all sitting around this big square table and I said, Gary, why don’t you do this, why don’t you just take your cell phone back and just say ‘Mr. President, you’re brilliant but we’re losing contact and I think we’re gonna lose you now so good-bye.’ And that’s what he did, and he hung up,” Carper said.

CNN’s John Berman asked for clarification. Did [b]Cohn actually pull the old “bad reception” trick and hang up on Trump[/b]? “Well, I wouldn’t — I don’t want to throw him under the bus,” Carper said. Then he did exactly that, adding, “But yes.”[/quote]

Considering how clueless Trump is about anything and how narcissist he is to realize he is rambling, I think Cohn did the right thing. But Trump would be so mad.[/quote]
