The US has decided: Donald Trump was voted out of office.
But the incumbent suspects fraud - and takes all means.
That brings him ridicule.
US President Donald Trump has already been identified as the loser before the end of the vote count.
He does not want to accept his loss to challenger Joe Biden.
A telephone hotline is supposed to uncover election fraud - but that backfires.
Washington DC - The
United States of America
has voted.
Joe Biden
*
is to become the 46th president of the country according to the will of US citizens.
Although the
vote count
is still going on
in the
USA
, the
Democrat's
lead over the
incumbent
Donald Trump
*
is so great that the winner will be determined before the official announcement of the election results.
Trump sees it differently, he has
not yet given up
the fight for the
White House
in Washington - although it has long been lost.
The 74-year-old does
not want to accept
the result of the
2020 US election
*
and stubbornly refuses to
initiate
the traditional
handover of the duties of
a voted
US president
to his successor.
US election 2020: election fraud hotline to help Trump - pranks annoy employees
In the past few days, he has not grown tired of denouncing alleged
election fraud
and
vote
theft, his party supports Trump in his questionable behavior.
To date, he has not had any proof of his adventurous theses.
Nevertheless, the
Republican
set up
a
hotline
that
Americans
can use to report
potential irregularities during the
presidential election

.

But this initiative is obviously backfiring.
There
are currently numerous videos circulating
on
and
TikTok
of
phone pranks
that many
US citizens use to
target
Trump's
election fraud hotline
.
US election 2020: phone pranks on Trump's election fraud hotline - videos on Twitter and TikTok
A Twitter user called there and said: “There were blacks who voted.
Is that legal? ”After a short break, the
hotline employee
hung up without a word.
It was probably not the first
prank call
for him
at Trump's helpline.

Another phone call said he saw a man dressed all in black on his way to the polling station.
"I think he is probably from the 'Antifa' ...
can I speak to Rudy Giuliani?"
The request for a conversation with Trump's lawyer was not granted, here too the person on the other end of the line ended the conversation abruptly.

"There is an overweight turtle that has rolled onto its back," said a
TikTok user
, describing
her alleged discovery of an irregularity on election day.
She was referring to a statement made by
CNN presenter Anderson Cooper
.
The
TV journalist
had compared the incumbent president with the animal in a live broadcast.
Trump behaves like an "overweight turtle wriggling on its back in the hot sun, realizing that its time is over".
Pranks on the electoral fraud hotline: Trump's son believes in a Democratic conspiracy
The US President's hotline is being bombarded with such calls.
Trump's son
is certain: the cause of these phone pranks can only be the political opponent.
"The Democratic Party is spamming our electoral fraud hotline to peter out the thousands of complaints we receive," claimed
Eric Trump
on Twitter.
The @DNC is spamming our voter fraud hotline to bog down the thousands of complaints we are receiving!
Wonder what they have to hide.
- Eric Trump (@EricTrump) November 7, 2020
Whether Trump can still use the hotline to prevent him from having to
vacate
his post as the
most powerful man in the world
seems more than questionable.
But while the end of his
term in office is
approaching, the phone pranks on the election fraud hotline are likely to continue.
