Speaking at a campaign event in South Carolina a couple weeks ago, Trump blasted senator Lindsey Graham— and then proceeded to give out his fellow presidential hopeful’s digits.
Well now website Gawker has published what they say is the Donald’s cell phone number.
From Gawker: Since Trump, in his considered political judgment, has decided that opening up a direct, personal channel of communications between his supporters and his primary opponents is a noble campaign tactic, we think it’s only fair and right that Republican primary voters be able to reach out to Trump himself. If it is the case—as Trump’s release of Graham’s number implicitly argues—that our political discourse improves when voters can ring up candidates on their private cell phones, then we are happy to add Trump’s cell phone number to the body of public knowledge. You can reach Donald Trump at 917-756-8000.
We called the number and it’s disconnected.
Breitbart call the Gawker post an ‘Epic Fail’:
The number they published at Gawker, however, complete with a fancy graphic touting that they had something special is an old number Trump no longer uses, a Trump campaign spokesperson confirmed to Breitbart News. The epic fail by Gawker has actually had, Trump’s team confirms, exactly zero impact on Trump’s day as a presidential candidate and businessman.
“It’s a very old number,” the Trump spokesperson said in an email. “This is not one he uses. Mr. Trump has several numbers so he has not experienced any issues.”
How do you think Trump will respond?
