Bolton says he recalls Trump using the term "burner phones"

Just another bold face lie. The guy simply can't help himself from lying. On the lighter side of this, ole John Bolton will catch hell setting the record straight about DJT's lying about not knowing what burner phones are.

John Bolton, the former national security adviser in the Trump administration, told CBS News on Tuesday that he had heard former President Donald Trump use the phrase "burner phones" in several discussions and the former president knew what it meant.


"I have no idea what a burner phone is, to the best of my knowledge I have never even heard the term," Trump said.


But Bolton said he and Trump have spoken about how people have used "burner phones" to avoid having their calls scrutinized.
Hmm, I wonder if I'm out of touch. I have heard and know what a burn phone is, but never heard of a burner phone. that is until today. I assume there're the same thing, just different phraseology. Now I wouldn't be surprised if Trump used them.
 
Which is more likely?
A. Bolton is lying because he hates Trump, although he has no motive to lie in this instance.

B. Trump, who lies about everything, is lying and has a strong motive to lie.

I know, it’s a difficult choice.
How about this... every BS report by the left, every accusation, every breaking fake news, and every leftist clown on here, has told us over and over that Trump was going to be taken away in handcuffs, any moment, for more than half a decade now.. You are all 0 for 10,000+.

I'll stick with the odds that this is another load of crap.

Have you any idea what happened to those logs? Have you any idea of what phone he used to talk to Lee, Hannity, Ingrahm, McCarthy?

A bit shrill aren't you?
Trump will be brought to justice. He's been an expert at evading the law all his life but I have faith that justice will catch up with him.
 
Sure, in the twisted, leftist world.

In the world people actually live in.

Not the perverse would of Tucker Carlson, Parler and Telegram, where the last remaining suckers still believe anything Trump says, no matter how many time he lies to them.

This one was an obvious, reflexive lie. Trump went to great lengths to avoid having anything he said documented.
 
Which is of course why Trump tried to get out in front of it by cleverly tweeting he never knew what a "burner phone" is.

You have to be an idiot or a Trump supporter (I know, I know....redundant) to think Trump doesn't know what a burner phone is. That phrase has been around for a long time. Burner phones have been historically used by drug dealers and other criminals, and men who cheat on their wives.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out that Trump used a burner phone to prevent his mail order bride from finding out about his liaisons with porn stars and Playboy bunnies.

It was original called a burn phone. The phrase was coined in 2002. Burn phone and burner phone are the same thing.
 
Of course their is absolutely no reason to believe Bolton, who hates Trump and would love to cause him some trouble.
you make a good point and if Bolton was the only witness to trump's treason, he might get off. But as more and more facts and witnesses come out, "wah wah Bolton hates me" isnt really an effective defense. I know you're only looking for excuses to continue to support trump and ignore his treason but you need to put America first.

He doesn't care.
Trump is above the law.
We need to focus on Hillary and Hunter.
 
John Bolton is a loser.

Donald Trump is a loser.

Let them scuffle over which is the bigger one.
All true, but there's an ounce of honesty in Bolton whereas DJT has none.
 
How many adults in 2022 have never heard of a burner phone?

Adults nobody purposely invites to socializing, that's who.

That's like doing coke in the 80s and never hearing of a quaalude.
 
Definitely over Bolton, and, of course, the fake news.
Again I have to ask, as I am genuinely perplexed by a statement like yours. Given Trump's record going back to his birtherism and Trump University, given his statements that elections were rigged going back to the Emmys, why do you believe the guy?

Even people who've never used a burner phone know what they are

1) What does it say about Trump's promise that he would only hire "THE BEST PEOPLE" - not only did "THE BEST PEOPLE" refuse to serve in his Administration, he selected those with whom he would invariably part ways, under less than amicable terms?

2) Several of "THE BEST PEOPLE" served "JAIL TIME," who along with other convicted felons, such as Roger Stone, made a mockery of the judicial system by being rewarded with "PRESIDENTIAL PARDONS!

3) THE BAD NEWS - John Bolton decided to write a "tell-all" book, rather than testify at Trump's impeachment hearing


4) THE GOOD NEWS - although his reputation was permanently damaged, at least Bolton can say that he survived the Trump Administration without being charged with a felony, serving jail time or requiring a presidential pardon

Because Bolt was fired, and stabbed Trump in the back with his book. No reason to believe him at all.
 
You have to wonder how Trump would have reacted to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A terrifying thought and the lies he would have spit out in defense of his inability to govern. Don't forget the fools he filled his cabinet with.
 
Sure, in the twisted, leftist world.
Show me one book written about Trump by a credible author (either major league journalists or someone close to him) that stands in contrast to books written by Woodward, Rucker, Costa, Mary Trump, Cohen, Bolton, etc. There is a remarkable consistency in such the books that have come out on him over the years and NO dissenting opinions that I am aware of...... only a fool would dismiss that many witnesses.

....except that what Bolton has to say is consistent with what just about every Trump insider says about him. Meanwhile, Trump has far more to gain by lying than Bolton does. Face it: Trump is lying; he knows exactly what a burner phone is. That is moot, however, as he is in violation of the Presidential Records Act.... but what is one more crime to a career criminal.


"Does 3 strikes and your out" apply to former President's?

What is the easiest way to tell us you are stupid? Tell us you are an adult who has never heard of a burner phone.

I dont know if Trump had a burner phone or not. I dont care. I care about the stupids telling us he is an adult who doesn't know what a burner phone is, and also qualified to be president.


Go for it.

So, I should believe a list of clowns that hate Trump? Sure, okay.
 
If you live on the EC, you know what a burn phone is. How can anyone in NY, NJ or CT hear Trump say he doesnt know what a burn phone is and side him with?

Those adults arent being invited to anything.

You you've explained why you believe Bolton's version of events. Why believe Trump's? He has done the same to others.
 
It really doesn't matter in court what a person claims they heard. It's hard enough for a person to prove that someone DID something unless there's physical corroborating evidence.

A claim that can never be substantiated short of video/audio evidence, coming from someone who is openly antagonistic towards Trump is just a smear with a name attached to it. In this case, that accusation is coming from a known member and a primary war planner of the Military Industrial Complex, makes the claim suspect.

John Bolton's business is global armed conflicts.
