That's a bit hyperbolic at this point, don't you think? Did you actually read the article you posted?
Here's every relevant piece of information from the article. Most of the rest of it is just framing and the balance is speculation.
1. An anonymous source claimed that there are no calls logged for a period of hours after Trump's speech.
2. "It was widely reported" (they wrote this without providing citations) that Trump had/made phone calls during that period.
That's it. That's the only substantive information in the article. Let's have a look at it.
Number 1 is a single, unnamed source. There's zero credibility there. In the olden days of journalism, like five or six years ago, an organization wouldn't run with a story unless and until they could get three independent confirmations of it. Now, a single anonymous source is apparently enough. Anyway, the person isn't named and there's only one of them, so it's meaningless unless the story develops further.
Number 2 almost didn't even make the list. The only reason I included it was because they named specific individuals with claims that those people described conversations they had with the president. They didn't cite any of the specific information, though. Lazy.
Most propaganda is built upon a kernel of truth. Regardless of what happens with this, at this stage, nobody actually knows anything. We don't even know if the anonymous source is real. That's how little we actually know about this. It wouldn't be the first time that sources were faked to make up a story, either.
It is hyperbolic. Nixon was a small timer compared ho the would-be crooks around Trump.
We wish it were like Nixon. Back then the GOP had a backbone and some decency and demanded a resignation.
Now they are weak. They are afraid of Trump supporters. Doesn’t matter if he broke the law, lied and covered it up.
That's because we had actual evidence all pointing back to Nixon, all while he denied it until he couldn't push himself further in the corner he was backed into.
Your emotional outrage and media stories that go nowhere (just like this one will) doesn't count as hard evidence.
He doesn't know what a burner phone is? He filed a lawsuit in 2021 where he references a burner phone on pages 3 and 10:
Trump v. Trump, 2021-53963, Supreme Court of the State of New York (Dutchess County)
"All the while, the parties knew full well that their actions were wrongful, as evidenced by their insistence on communicating through "burner" phones"
"At or around that time, Craig provided Mary Trump with a "burner" phone in an attempt to conceal their communications."
"Craig chose to use a "burner" phone"
100% he's lying. I really don't know why any of his acolytes trust him. He could tell you the sky is blue and the sun is hot, and at this point I'd probably think he was lying.
has he said in 2021 he didn't know what burner phones were?
did he write that language in the lawsuit, or an attorney did?
There are 1000's of 60+ year old government officials that don't know what a burner phone is, and of those that do, half should be investigated for using them.
Dems continuing to pursue this in an election year where they’re already going to get their faces biatch slapped makes zero sense. Someone should tell them it’s probably best not to fire up the opposing side even more than they already are
...The number corresponds to an official White House phone and the call was placed by Donald Trump himself, which means the call should have been recorded in the internal presidential call log that was turned over to the House select committee investigating the Capitol attack.
Trump’s call to Lee was reported at the time, as well as its omission from the call log, by the Washington Post and CBS. But the origin of the call as coming from an official White House phone, which has not been previously reported, raises the prospect of tampering or deletion by Trump White House officials...
