      Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker: “Washington’s hottest commodity is a 10-digit number that can swing financial markets, drive the news, and shift policy—but only if the timing is right.

      “The White House has received reports in recent weeks that President Trump’s personal phone number has been offered for sale to deep-pocketed interests seeking influence, two administration officials told us. ‘It’s honestly just wild,’ one of them said. ‘I’ve heard of CEOs offering money for his number. I’ve heard of crypto bros offering cryptocurrency for it.’ Journalists have taken to horse-trading among themselves, offering the contact information of other world leaders—or sometimes even dozens of bold-faced names—just to get the most important one saved into their phones. ‘It’s out of control,” said the second official, who, like others we spoke with for this story, requested anonymity to talk frankly on the issue. ‘It’s like a wrecking ball.’

      “No one foresaw this at the start of Trump’s second term, when the number was closely held by the president’s friends and a handful of journalists who used it sparingly. So many people now call Trump on his private iPhone that his advisers have stopped trying to keep track. Sometimes in meetings, he will leave his phone face up, allowing staff to gawk at the flashing notifications of incoming or missed calls that pile up on his screen. Only some of them are from numbers that have been saved in the device. ‘It is literally call after reporter call,’ the first official said. ‘It is just boom, boom, boom.’ …

      “One fear in the West Wing: that someone will give Trump bad information, or sell him on a conspiracy theory, provoking a reaction aides will have to clean up. Another concern: that the president will waste his time responding to meaningless trifles that distract from the arguments that the White House wants to make.”

      America has always been for sale, Trump just turned the knob to 11 and made it a family business.

      All he cares about is filling his and his friends pockets. The only reason he cares about GOP elections is because it will be easier to keep lining his pockets with them in charge than not, otherwise he couldn’t give less of a fuck. And once he’s outta the White House, he doesn’t care what happens.

      Then everyone is an idiot, I’m sorry to say. Everything is for sale in Trump world, everything is transactional and everyone is a commodity. It can’t have come as a surprise that the guy who sells pardons like candy wouldn’t pass on an opportunity to make some bucks from selling his phone number.

      Someone who knows how to spoof caller ID numbers could have a field day with that number right? Hello Vlad, yo mamma’s here and want to know if you want her to bring you some.

      This is good news. The less the idiot king is allowed to focus, the less damage he can do.

      Trump has made a lot of money. He is even selling pardons to rapists and criminals like him.

      Wasn’t there some right wing grievance about supposed “pay to play” with Hillary a decade ago? And now their guy can be phoned any time for corpos to get market interventions and pardons from him. Obviously conservatives have no real principles and don’t care about this, but it’s sad that swing voters and centrists say they care about corruption and then they willingly choose the guy who is 100x worse when it comes to corruption. I don’t understand why they complain about corruption and then give power to Trump and all of his rogues gallery of grifters.

      Everyone quick change your Call ID info to “Stephen Miller” and start calling him with ideas like “you know two weeks of this war cost the same as health care for all, we should end the war and fund healthcare”

      That is a common problem with the elderly.
