The Trump Campaign's Voter Fraud Hotline Keeps Getting Pranked

June 7, 2012 was of the greatest days in Internet history, thanks to the Republican National Congressional Committee and a whole lot of toner. If you were on Twitter that day, you’ve probably never forgotten it, but if you weren’t: The RNCC, trying to build support to repeal the Affordable Care Act, launched a petition drive in which signers’ names were printed out on a printer connected to a webcam that was livestreaming the whole thing. You can probably guess why this was a bad idea: internet users figured out how to game the petition and soon the Republicans’ printer was happily chronicling the signatures of potential Obamacare opponents like “Barf Vomit,” “Boner Junkmonkey,” and “HelpI’mStuck InThisPrinter.” It was a day of creativity, celebration, and, of course, “Boner Junkmonkey.” But it was also, internet observers believed, a glory that would never return.

Then, in 2020, the Trump campaign set up a voter fraud website at https://djt45.co/stopfraud and a hotline at [phone], and now the internet is fun again!

So far, it doesn’t seem like the campaign has located any evidence of voter fraud, but they’ve definitively proved that there are a lot of funny people in this country who do not support Trump’s desperate attempt to defy the election results. Those with a literary bent discovered that the web form on the Trump campaign’s website did not have a character limit, which allowed them to submit the entire screenplay of the 2007 Jerry Seinfeld film Bee Movie in the “Description of the Incident” box:

Just because you can fit the entire Bee Movie script into Rudy’s fraud form doesn’t mean you should paste the entire Bee Movie script into Rudy’s fraud form. But it IS possible, just so you know. pic.twitter.com/M8ivqONxWw

Meanwhile, performers like Gravity Falls creator and voice actor Alex Hirsch upped the ante by calling the hotline to tell the Trump campaign that votes were being stolen by, among others, the Hamburglar:

Teens on TikTok got involved, too, and since then the internet has been nearly as amusing as the glory days of Boner Junkmonkey and the RNCC printer.

1. Here was my report ...

About 18 years ago, I witnessed a large amount of construction/earth-moving work going on at my neighbors house. When I asked him about it, he was very secretive. I knew for sure he was a DEM because he'd had Gore signs before!

After all the dump trucks and such finished, after weeks of work, I slipped into the back door at his house one day and discovered a secret elevator in a closet. Of course I got into it and pressed down, and was soon whisked into a giant underground laboratory full of elaborate and expensive equipment, including six tanks with what looked like human embryos floating in them!

There were labels on each tank: AZ, GA, NV, PA, MI, WI.

Fast forward to 4 days before the election ... one of those Commuter Vans from the airport pulled up, and then 6 men, approximately 18 years old, filed out of my neighbors door, and get this ... THEY ALL LOOKED JUST LIKE MY NEIGHBOR, but a younger version!

I'm positive these clones were deployed to vote for Biden!

And then uploaded this pic to prove I was FOR REAL!
