Trump shared the wrong number for a Michigan lawmaker. A 28-year-old has thousands of angry calls.

A 28-year-old Michigan native was napping on Sunday when they were suddenly awakened by a barrage of rings, pings and buzzes coming from their cellphone.

“I was scared,” said O Rose, who uses they/them pronouns and asked to withhold their full first name for safety reasons. “I thought I got doxed.”

In a way, Rose was doxed — but not purposefully. The source was the Trump campaign, which shared their number with 4.6 million followers on Twitter and Facebook.

On Sunday, the campaign asked supporters to call two Michigan state lawmakers and demand a vote to decertify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in a state he won by more than 150,000 votes. The campaign posted numbers and emails for Michigan state Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey (R) and former Michigan House speaker Lee Chatfield (R).

Not only did the post, which President Trump also re-shared to more than 35 million followers on his own Facebook page, falsely identify Chatfield as the current speaker, it also gave the wrong number for the former lawmaker.

1. He's a threat to public safety. If he was your neighbor you'd call the cops on him for endangerment.

He loves to get people hurt other people.Everything and everyone else is just collateral damage.

2. Great optics there, Diarrhea Donny

3. Isn't there a right to privacy?

Getting doxxed often can lead to violence.

6. They weren't doxxed.

Someone made a mistake with the phone number, and gave out the wrong one. That isn't doxxing.

4. Even if the number was right, it is intimidation.

8. I must admit if this happened to me I would save every voicemail and compile

a greatest hits album and publish it.
With each number
even if it was only one tweet and recording at a time from a new dedicated account
