Laura Ingraham slammed for anonymous poll worker 'stunt', Internet asks if it's Donald Trump

'Unless a person who is objectively not Trump comes out and confirms it's them with proof, I don't see how this could be anyone but him,' wrote a user

Fox News host Laura Ingraham has come under fire for interviewing an anonymous poll worker on national television. The person being interviewed had a disguised voice with their identity concealed. The person made a few shocking revelations about the vote ballots gathering a lot of reactions from the viewers. The host however refers to the person as "her". 

The video sees Laura asking the interviewee about an alleged voting fraud that they witnessed happening by the "side of Biden-Harris van in the parking lot of police station." The anonymous person says in response that they went out for a walk during their break and the van was parked about 150 feet away. While walking along the stretch, they saw people handing over what appeared to be “white envelopes”. 

The person further adds, “As I got closer the envelopes were being torn open and there were two men, two people dropping the envelopes and two ripping them facing the van.” They further noted that it looked like they were “drawing” on them. 

“As I got closer I thought those were ballots and I was in my polling uniform basically. And it was kind of, odd. Like, what were they doing.” It reportedly took them six minutes to walk the entire stretch during the break. The person further adds that when they came back the people were still “opening and marking the ballot”. Ingraham asks the person if they said anything on witnessing what they claim were ballots that were placed within the envelopes. 

The interview soon went viral as people started discussing the possible identity of the person in the video, while many slammed Fox for reporting an anonymous source, as the network had previously established that they were against unreliable information. 

However, a large number of them were of the opinion that the person in the video is Trump himself, thanks to some resurfaced tweets of the president from the 90s that consisted of multiple pseudonyms including John Barron to John Miller, Carolin Gallego and David Dennison. 

One user tweeted, "Anonymous one was Trump himself." Another added, "Is #trump pulling another 1991 stunt where he called a radio station pretending to be someone else. Laura Ingraham interviews an 'anonymous poll worker' —complete with a disguised voice. I'm sorry but all I can hear is Trump!" One tweeted, "I am willing to put down 100 bucks that this is him this is an incredibly serious wager."

Another added, "Unless a person who is objectively not Trump comes out and confirms it's them with proof, I don't see how this could be anyone but him." One user posted, "@IngrahamAngle @realDonaldTrump I thought we didn’t like or trust anonymous sources, fake a**es," while another wrote, "@IngrahamAngle so now it is okay to have anonymous tippers but it wasn’t okay to have them on the impeachment trial. Hypocrisy."
