Trump Organization Owns More Than 3,600 Domain Names, Many of Which Bash Trump (go.com)

With the presidential election just days away, research firm DomainIQ decided to track down the number of domains registered under Donald Trump's organization and Hillary Clinton's campaign. They found that the Trump Organization owns more than 3,600 web addresses, including names of his properties, products and progeny, as well as Trump-bashing names. Some of the domains registered under the Trump Organization include donaldtrumpsucks.com, no2trump.com, trumpmustgo.com and two dozen others that appear to be bashing the billionaire Republican presidential nominee. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton's campaign owns 70 domains, but none of them appear to bash Clinton. ABC News reports: There are 274 domains alone featuring the name of Trump's daughter Ivanka. And then there are the ones that seem better suited for the anti-Trump crowd: eight domains ending in "scheme," eight ending in "fraud" and eight ending in "sucks." Cable giant Comcast owns ihatecomcast.com, and Verizon holds verizonsucks.com. Colleges have made a habit of buying up versions of their names ending in .xxx to prevent them from falling into the hands of pornographers, and Major League Baseball has registered the names of various teams ending in .sex. Hillary Clinton's campaign owns 70, according to DomainIQ, though none appear to be the kind of derogatory names Trump has registered. Her family's foundation owns 214 domains, including four ending in .xxx.

    Holy shit! There were emails found on a computer?! Fuckin-A, every single one is undoubtedly a bombshell proving your conspiracy hyperbole and will finally be the irrefutable piece of evidence that sways everyone to your opinion....but the establishment won't show us cause its rigged and everyone who's ever had a stray negative thought about the Clintons has been caught by the thought police and beheaded which is why all of our rivers are running red with blood! Thank Jeebus for patriots like yourself who who love 'murica so much you want to destroy it and risked their life to remind a message board about more emails because the mainstream media makes you go to their websites to find out about it and they might have flash or an ad.

    Seriously though, $100 to whoever can successfully distract me from any talk about emails for the next 2 weeks. Sorry AC, you're out of the running.

    "And not thin skinned. Most definitely not thinned skinned. I have the thickest skin. Let me tell you, it's thick, really thick."

    And golly-bob howdy, his supporters sure are defensive in this thread.

    I've been thinking, maybe the cluster fuck of him getting elected might be the only thing that fixes them. The way Paula Bean had to get fired, maybe these people need to see what happens to the country when they actually hold the reins.

    Who am I kidding, they'd just find another conspiracy theory, or another ethnic group to blame. The system is rigged. The system is always rigged against them.
