The Republican National Committee promoted a voter fraud hotline on Twitter Wednesday. But it was soon swamped with replies from people claiming to have reported President Donald Trump for election misconduct.

Trump has repeatedly attacked the democratic process and falsely declared victory over Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the 2020 election, even with millions of votes still uncounted. The president has also baselessly accused Democrats of “trying to steal” the White House.

“I reported a mad man on Twitter that is demanding we stop counting the votes, and is threatening lawsuits if we don’t,” one person replied to the RNC.

Added another: “The call is coming from inside the house.”

Yes, I’d like to report Donald Trump for demanding that poll workers stop counting ballots because he knows he will lose and instead of accepting that, he makes baseless and dangerous allegations.

I'm just saying. I think a LOT of us saw the current occupant of the WH attempt election fraud today.

I'm sure the GOP would like to get reports.

Like, a LOT of reports.

So. Many. Reports.

You can do it. https://t.co/Hh5eQ53LST
