Trump appears to share personal phone number of US senator in ploy to push permanent daylight savings

US president urges Americans to call Tom Cotton to support bill to make daylight saving time permanent Donald Trump on Saturday put pressure on the US senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas to support a bill to make daylight saving time permanent, urging Americans to call what appeared to be the personal cellphone number of his fellow Republican and the chair of the Senate intelligence committee.
