Their recorders were perilously close to the red button.īut Dunn expressed surprise on Twitter that Biden had removed the button – the very button that he and Sunday Times colleague Tim Shipman saw Trump push during their interview with the 45th president.
Their recorders and phones are right there on the famous desk taking in every word uttered by the leader of the free world. The Times’s Tom Dunn reported that he and a colleague from The Washington Post wondered what the button was used for as they interviewed the president of the United States of America. Was it there to press, like the queen does in The Crown, to get her aide to yank out the guest she’s bored with? No. Was it pressed to launch nukes? Of course not. There was a sense of surprise that the “fascinating” and mysterious button no longer sits on the most famous desk, used by the most famous leaders, in the most famous office in America, if not the world. The change was first spotted by a reporter at The UK Sunday Times Radio, who noticed that the red button previously gracing the same Resolute Desk used by President Trump is now … missing.
