I love the way he swept the drone issue under the carpet. I can't see anyone else doing it, but who knows. If he didn't get the text, why respond with "you think I would do that then not respond to you?" Trust me, he got your text. I think he told on himself just a wee bit. He got caught! I think he was gaslighting you. LOL!
