Jordan spoke to Trump more than once on January 6th but claims he doesn’t remember details of calls; Gaetz participated

An exclusive from Politico Playbook:  “MORE THAN ONE JAN. 6 TRUMP-JORDAN CALL — We know that DONALD TRUMP and Rep. JIM JORDAN spoke once on the day of the Capitol riot, but the Ohio Republican has said he doesn’t remember when their conversation took place. We have some new details that could help clear up that timeframe — including confirmation of at least one more phone conversation between Jordan and the then-president during the siege.  After a group of lawmakers were evacuated from the House chamber to a safe room on Jan. 6, Jordan was joined by Rep. MATT GAETZ (R-Fla.) for a call during which they implored Trump to tell his supporters to stand down, per a source with knowledge of that call. The source declined to say how Trump responded to this request.

“Jordan, when asked about whether Gaetz participated, said he’d ‘have to think about it,’ citing many conversations he had during the frenetic attack. He also said phone calls to Trump happened more than once on that deadly day.  ‘Look, I definitely spoke to the president that day. I don’t recall — I know it was more than once, I just don’t recall the times,’ Jordan told our Olivia Beavers. He later said that ‘I’m sure’ one of the Trump-involved calls took place in the safe room ‘because we were in that room forever.’ (For safety reasons, we are not disclosing the specific room where members were evacuated to, but that is the room Jordan is referencing.) Jordan would not get into the specifics of what he discussed with the president, though he said that like everyone, he wanted the National Guard to get involved.

“A spokesperson for Gaetz, who has supported Trump’s decisions on Jan. 6, said: ‘Congressman Gaetz speaks with President Trump regularly and doesn’t disclose the substance of those discussions with the media.'”
