OK,Watch Soul Online so this has been a pretty crazy week and it seems like it's getting just a tad crazier as comedian John Melendez (aka "Stuttering John" to Howard Stern fans) claims he successfully prank called President Trump.

The call, which apparently took place Wednesday night as Trump flew back from a rally in North Dakota, is part of an episode of Melendez's podcast in which he manages to get in touch with Trump on Air Force One by posing as Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ).
It also seems that at one point Jared Kushner got involved, making sure the call was patched through to Trump despite objections.

Once Melendez gets Trump on the phone, he peppers Trump with questions about immigration and the new Supreme Court justice to replace Anthony Kennedy.
It's... bizarre.
You can listen to the whole episode below with the Trump call starting about 1:08:00.
In the call, among other things, the voice that allegedly belongs to Trump (and does sound an awful lot like him) says he hopes to have the new SCOTUS pick announced in the next 12-14 days.
We've reached out to both the White House and Sen. Menendez's office for comment.
As for Melendez, he tweeted his shock that not more people had picked up the prank call.

Of course, this came amongst a news cycle that included the retirement of a Supreme Court justice and a mass shooting in a newspaper newsroom, so the story probably got buried before being circulated on Friday afternoon. Also, it was released deep into a pretty crappy sounding podcast.

Trump was, of course, a frequent guest on Stern's show, and Melendez is no stranger to prank phone calls. Except now, as you know, Trump is president.
If this pans out to be accurate, it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of the president's phone screeners.
Anyway, congratulations if you had "Former Howard Stern Associate Prank Call Posing As A Sitting U.S. Senator" in Trump Administration Bingo.
UPDATE: June 29, 2018, 4:17 p.m. EDT Updated to include more on call protocol, including Jared Kushner being involved.
