Trump challenged people to try to overhear conversation on phone. See what happened when CNN took the challenge.

Dated: November 21, 2019 by Sharyl Attkisson 3 Comments

      

In an effort to dispel the notion that an anti-Trump diplomat could have accurately overheard a phone call between President Trump and another diplomat on speaker phone, Trump challenged people to try:

I have been watching people making phone calls my entire life. My hearing is, and has been, great. Never have I been watching a person making a call, which was not on speakerphone, and been able to hear or understand a conversation. Iโ€™ve even tried, but to no avail. Try it live!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 21, 2019

CNN took the challenge to "try it live." To their credit, they clearly didn't set it up for a particular outcome in advance. To their embarrassment, it didn't quite turn out as they seemed to expect.

    That was the worst test ever. Cuomo held it inches from Dana Bash's ear and it was also tilted so she could listen in. Then the follow-up explanation that it could have been on speaker phone was a cover for their failure to prove anything. Disgraceful.
