On Monday, former U.S. President Donald Trump encountered a technological hiccup while attempting a conference call with faith leaders nationwide. Frustrated, he took to Truth Social to express his dissatisfaction with service provider, 'A&T'.
The call aimed to bridge dialogues between various religious communities, with Trump highlighting significant policies from his administration. Approximately 8,000 to 10,000 religious leaders were on standby as the service glitch delayed proceedings.
In response, 'A&T' immediately contacted the White House to rectify the issue, and the call commenced 20 minutes later. Trump addressed tax reforms, ceasefires, and peace deals during the 15-minute delay.
