    Tone of article suggests this is some sort of friendly gift but friends don’t give friends pagers. Employers give workers pagers. How did Donald Trump accept a gift that seems to symbolize he’s on call? Why hasn’t he tweeted a picture of it dropped in a toilet or something?

    And are we thinking either the gold pager or the real pager is a bomb and/or listening device? so weird

      Twist: they’re both bombs, they just want to be sure he’ll be in the blast radius whether he’s watching TV (regular pager) or on the toilet (gold pager).
