Anonymous declared "total war" on the Republican presidential candidate, calling on those with and without hacking experience to join the group.

"Dear Donald Trump, we have been watching you for a long time and what we see is deeply disturbing," a member of the hacktivist said in the video.

In 2015, Donald Trump read off former presidential candidate Lindsey Graham's phone number in front of hundreds at a rally in South Carolina, according to CNN. The South Carolina senator appeared to take it in stride, asking his Twitter followers which phone should he switch to.
