  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...

  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

I'm no fan of Vance or Trump, but I would think if you're on the phone with a previous president of the US and he's inviting you to be his running mate, you might also be telling your kid to STFU about a game for a minute.

If not, you have the patience of a saint.

If a former President called me while I was in a room with talking person(s), I'd bring my phone to a bathroom and close the door for privacy.

Yeah, interrupting someone when they're on a phone call isn't exactly good manners.
