Presidential candidate Donald Trump got his karma. Last month, he announced Senator Lindsey Graham's cell phone number during a speech. Doling out justice, Gawker just published Trump's cell phone number on Monday.
The publication announced the number in "the spirit of open and fair political debate."
Trump's number can be found at 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," Sam Biddle wrote in the Gawker post.
Trump told everyone Graham's cell phone number at a speech in South Carolina. He said he did this because Graham had called him a "jackass." Graham had called him that after Trump said that Senator John McCain should not be called a war hero, because he was captured. While McCain was in Vietnam, Trump was partying and working for his father in New York.
Trump's comment on McCain raised some eyebrows. He also made comments about Mexican immigrants, saying that they are rapists, criminals and drug dealers, causing many companies to cut ties with the Republican candidate.
Despite these and other questionable comments, Trump has a huge lead in current polls for Republican presidential candidates. Trump has 26 percent of the Republican vote in the newest poll, followed well behind by Governor Jeb Bush, who has 12 percent of the vote.
Gawker told readers to call Trump and ask about his more controversial comments, as well as his alleged net worth. The site also notes that in many states it's legal to record phone conversations, though readers should check what the laws in their home are.
After Trump announced his phone number, Graham had to get a new phone – and new phone number. He got himself an iPhone and made a funny video of himself destroying the old phone.
Photographer @WhiskeyEcho3 and I just tried to call the number @Gawker says is Donald Trump's and got an out-of-service signal.

Free drink for whoever is first to call #DonaldTrump & ask about his plan to handle the Decepticons. Or trade with Avatar. Must be recorded. — Ryan Mauro (@RyanMauro) August 3, 2015
Man, even Donald Trump can’t afford a 212 number.
