White House struggles with muting function for 22 minutes on Iran conference call with reporters

It took the White House 22 minutes to figure out how to enable the "listening only" feature on a conference call on Thursday in which senior administration officials announced that President Trump would continue to waive nuclear program-related sanctions, keeping the deal intact.

"This White House can't even run a f*cking conference call," a reporter on an unmuted phone line angrily exclaimed to the entire call. "They don't know how to mute their line."

"It's the illegitimate media that doesn't know how to conduct themselves. They can't mute their f*cking phones," an unidentified official said. "Mute your phones."

Another White House official repeatedly attempted to quiet the noisy line "so the people in charge" could talk.

"I think if everyone had half a brain and common sense and muted their phones, this wouldn't be a problem," she yelled in an apparent fit of frustration.

"Hello? Hello?," one reporter interjected, some 15 minutes after the slated start of the call. "Has the call started?"

"This is Kim Jong Un calling for Donald Trump," another reporter joked as tensions flared.

"All participants are now in listen-only mode," the operator finally announced, much to the relief of everyone on the call.

A State Department official announced at the end of the call that the technical difficulties prevented the senior administration officials from taking any questions from reporters.

The left has lost it. They really will believe anything

Why does everything have to be addressed as some political shit around here?

I thought it was hilarious that a conference call at the level of the white house could end up with the same kind of fuck ups that anyone that goes through lots of conference calls (as I do) would encounter. The main difference being, on a White House call there are 200+ people.

This is on the level of the inevitable break down of a presentation when Bill Gates or Steve Jobs would be up on stage at a Microsoft or Apple kick off.

You just have to laugh, ya know?

It has absolutely nothing to do with what party is in power doing the call. It has everything to do with the humor of a fucked conference call.
