Trump Forced To Drop ‘voter Fraud by rolams(m): 9:35pm On Nov 13, 2020
Trump forced to drop ‘voter fraud’ hotline after it was swamped by prank calls from teenagers on TikTok.

President has no path to overturn the results of the election despite his continued attacks on the democratic process.

President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign was forced to shutter a hotline it created in recent days to field allegations of voter fraud after it had become the subject of viral pranks and ridicule among critics.

The president has yet to reveal any evidence of systematic voter fraud or election rigging — claims he made long before the results of the 2020 presidential election were even announced — and the hotline did not appear to provide him much support.

By Friday, it was reported his campaign had shut down the hotline, instead encouraging Americans to send complaints of alleged voter fraud through a digital form.

The news comes as multiple law firms representing the Trump campaign abruptly withdrew from several legal challenges the president has launched in critical battleground states. President-elect Joe Biden flipped key states like Pennsylvania and Georgia, according to official projections, while securing more than the 270 electoral votes required to assume the Oval Office.

Even if the president’s attacks on the electoral process were successful in both Pennsylvania and Georgia, however, it would not overturn the results of the election. It became increasingly clear Mr Biden did not even need to win either state to maintain his victory, after having flipped Arizona according to projections announced on Thursday — the first time a Democratic presidential candidate has won the state since 1996.

To be clear, there has been no evidence made available to date of mass voter fraud, and the president has yet to win a single meaningful victory in his legal challenges.

To be clear, there has been no evidence made available to date of mass voter fraud, and the president has yet to win a single meaningful victory in his legal challenges.

But Mr Trump has still refused to concede, as reports indicated he was considering launching another presidential bid for 2024 — while possibly launching a digital streaming service in the meantime.

Comedians, celebrities and social media users reportedly inundated the president’s voter fraud hotline with false claims. Reporters said the hotline operators received an overwhelming number of prank calls as well as “disturbing unsolicited adult images” — with the lines so busy throughout the week that this journalist could not get through on several occasions when attempting to dial the hotline for reporting purposes.

Many teenagers on the social media platform Tik Tok were sharing videos of themselves calling the hotline with bogus claims, recording the reaction of the hotline operator and posting it to their accounts with messages mocking the president’s defeat in the elections.

With several of the president’s lawsuits already found to be frivolous by federal judges, along with the end of his voter fraud hotline and rejection by a number of firms representing his campaign, it was not clear how Mr Trump thought he could still manage to overturn the results of the election as a growing number of Republicans on Capitol Hill have urged him to concede to Mr Biden.

Don't mind those Persons against Trump.

Democrats and their allies are using the media to surpress Trump but unfortunately for them Trump remains till 2024.

A patriotic Nigerian will never support democrat for their role in bringing Buhari and the APC to power.

Am advocating that the media in US should be sanctioned, Facebook, Twitter be sued for their biased role and Mods on Politics in Nairaland be sanctioned also for allowing only Anti-Trump supporters and topic have their way

The media war against Trump is a serious cause of concern in how they twist truth and manipulate people and these evil institutions need to be brought down.

Imagine even mods banning me here 4 times for speaking truth .

Who is afraid and afraid of what exactly? Afraid of beating Trump with over 5 million of the popular votes with 306 secured electoral college votes?

If the margin that separates the 2 candidates is less than 10,000 in some State's then it triggers a recount.

Trump has not been able to esterblish one single case of electoral fraud with any evidence in all the cases he has lost so far in all the courts he has ran to.

The call him a racist. But What’s the difference between a whites only employing whites to an Hausa man who only employs Hausas, Yoruba only Yoruba, Ibo’s to IBo’s.

Instead of Nigeria to go fix their country well Dem dey blame the man.

You don't need to go to court to instigate a recount... In most US states, votes are recounted if margin is less than a certain amount.

Which planet are you on and stop fabricating baseless claims like Trump and to correct your earlier false claim, no judge ordered a recount of Georgia's vote.

Tell me what date is on the electoral map below and get your facts right before spreading more innuendo

Mr man, stop posting, projections.

There is a difference between projections and current reality.

Its also obvious you are not current. A recount is currently ongoing in Georgia.

The chart I posted, is current reality not fake news projections.

Peace.

Chai..nawa.

Please read the article I posted again.

Yes Biden won it on the 13th by 14k, but after that, a recount was ordered.

And this recount is currently ongoing. And when there is a recount ongoing, the result cannot be certified.

Even una favourite CNN said so.

Bros, there is ongoing recount. Hand recount that cannot be finished in one day.

What you posted did not contradict what I have said. And its also an opinion by the person saying it cannot be overturned.

Let's distinguish between opinions and realities on ground please.

You have simply gone off point.

Didn't you study how to read charts in school?

You can clearly see that they are markers used even before the counts for those states were done.

You can see the markers for lawsuits are not projected for any candidate.

Smh.
