Stealing-The-Spotlight: Oops! Look Who's Calling

It was an almost perfect time to stage a disruption at Arizona Governor Doug Ducey's press conference yesterday when local and national media - and the world was watching.
Just a few seconds into the press conference, Ducey is seen pulling a cellphone from his coat pocket. He then appears to ignore the call that was reportedly from the White House 
 

President Donald Trump lashed out at Arizona Gov Doug Ducey Monday night for 'rushing to put a Democrat in office' as a video appeared to show him ignore a call from the White House during a press conference where he certified the state's vote for Joe Biden. 

Just a few seconds into the press conference, Ducey is seen pulling a cellphone from his coat pocket. 

He then appears to ignore the call that was reportedly from the White House . . .

Trump then retweeted a claim that Ducey had 'betrayed the people of Arizona,' and commented: 'TRUE!'

He also shared a post that asked: 'Who needs Democrats when you have Republicans like (Georgia Gov) Brian Kemp and Doug Ducey?'

Earlier on Monday, Trump dialed into an Arizona 'hearing' on election fraud that went on for more than eight hours, claiming the election was 'rigged' and bashing Ducey for certifying the state's vote for Biden.

'The 2020 election was rigged it was a scam and the whole world is watching and they're laughing at our country,' Trump said, phoning into the hearing-style event after 7pm. 

'We got 74 million [votes] and we didn't win. But I know that we won Arizona and we won Michigan and we won Georgia and we won Pennsylvania and we won Wisconsin. But what they did is they played games,' he said. . . .
