"Look, this is the worst decision you ever have in your life, practically, the caller said. And Jack's gonna agree with me, right? But this is a terrible decision. And you have Hakeem Jeffries, who he's a dope! And you've have Chuck Schumer, who can't cook a cheeseburger. Of course these people are happy! Of course these are people happy, but true Americans will not be happy."
"John Barron was the alias used by Trump to feed information to reporters in the 1980s and '90s. That fact, plus the voice resembling the president's, fooled some prominent critics into thinking it was actually Trump on the phone. The President of the United States called into a cable news show under a fake name to complain about how unfair everyone is to him. You cannot make this shit up. He is unwell."
A 32-second call from 'John in Virginia' identifying himself as John Barron aired on C-SPAN after a Supreme Court tariff ruling. The caller harshly criticized the decision, attacked Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer, and said "true Americans will not be happy." The John Barron alias was historically used by Trump in the 1980s and 1990s, and the caller's voice resemblance led observers to suspect the president dialed in. Social media responses ranged from mockery to concern, with some users calling the president unwell and others suggesting the call might have been a gag.
