Trump starts feud with tecom provider AT&T

US President Donald Trump has called out American telecommunications company AT&T for problems he encountered during a conference call, although the operator insisted the issue was not caused by its network.

President Trump took to his Truth Social platform to state: “I’m doing a major conference call with faith leaders from all over the country and AT&T is totally unable to make their equipment work properly.” He then called on AT&T’s boss, “whoever that may be”, to get involved, stating it was the second time it had happened.

President Trump did not elaborate on what exactly the issue was. The president concluded by stating it would have to reschedule the call, “but we’ll use another carrier next time”.

Responding on X, AT&T said it contacted the White House and then conducted an initial analysis to find “the disruption was caused by an issue with the conference call platform, not our network”. The operator added it is “working diligently to better understand the issue so we can prevent disruptions in the future”.
