LONDON — As further allegations about sexual misconduct emerge about Donald Trump, thousands have entered into a fierce debate on Twitter about the legitimacy of the claims.

They're using the hashtag #NextFakeTrumpVictim which is believed to have been started on 4chan.

Some are making jokes and accusing the alleged victims of political opportunism, while others have called out the hashtag as another example of victim blaming.

Many pointed out the timing of the allegations.

Digusting. How dare you make fun of sexual assault victims that conveniently confess right before an election. #NextFakeTrumpVictim — Billy Bob (@BillyBobfagface) October 13, 2016

Amazing how they all come forward at once...almost as if it was choreographed. Right? #NextFakeTrumpVictim https://t.co/HhAlHfV85A — Deplorable Mac 🐸 (@TweetBrettMac) October 13, 2016

Critics of the hashtag have called on Twitter to take action.

We live in a world where sexual assault happens and when a victim steps forward hashtags like this are made. #NextFakeTrumpVictim pic.twitter.com/Ap5Aqz0Uko — M. (@maxinecabassa) October 13, 2016

I cannot believe Twitter hasn't squashed #NextFakeTrumpVictim yet. Someone must be asleep at the wheel. — Pastor Bones (@pastorbones) October 13, 2016

On Wednesday night, the New York Times published a story in which two women described incidents that happened decades apart, stating they were victims of Trump's unwanted sexual advances.

The allegations come after the publication of a 2005 tape of Donald Trump describing how he makes sexual advances by grabbing women "by the pussy" caused an international outcry on Friday 7 October.

His campaign staff issued a statement calling the accusations "fiction."
