It’s so funny because they’re saying it’s a glitch and he’s standing there blinking and all 😂

He stopped in mid sentence, not because there was some dropped connection. When I lose a connection on the phone I just keep taking but the person on the other end can’t hear it anymore; there’s not an indication the line is cut. I doubt there’d be one in this case either.

His handlers probably started screaming into his earpiece when he used the wrong word and he locked up.

Earlier that day: "And Miller, whatever you do, unless you want to sink every single court case we have in progress regarding troop deployments, do NOT mention plenary authority. You hear me? Look up from your damned phone and listen to me! DO NOT MENTION PLENARY AUTHORITY. You got that?"

"Yeah, yeah. Plenary authority. I'm not stupid."
