I consider this to be a general question. Please feel free to move it.
When Trump gives a speech, the sign on the podium says, “TEXT TRUMP TO (some 5-digit number)”. So what happens if I do that? What happens if I misspell “FRUMP” or even “KISS MY ***”. And lastly, how can I get a 5-digit text number?
Without telling us what that 5 digit number is, we really can’t tell you.
Of course we can. Watch and be amazed how I do just that.
If you do it, you get put on a list to get regular updates, via text, about the campaign. If you text something other than the key word (in this case TRUMP) nothing will happen. They might have different key words for different things. Maybe you could also text DONATE or VOLUNTEER to get different information.
ETA: another would be to text STOP to not get updates anymore.
It asks for you zip code and you get text updates on Making America Great Again
I forgot to answer the second part of the question. Those things are called SMS Short Codes. Below is a link to an article from a company that sells them. It does a pretty good job describing how they work.
Wow. That was cool. Can you do that pretty much any time you want to?
This really is more of a General Question, even if it was prompted by a campaign event.
I am sending it there.

Czarcasm**, that was not really necessary, even if it had been in GQ to begin with.
