Trump isn’t looking for a second term - he’s looking for a do-over. Here’s how Trump’s record stacks up against the promises he made to the American people:

A lot of the shit he has done is on a 7-year statute of limitations clock. If he gets a second term he can evade prosecution for it.

5. Apparently, we can attribute this to Tom Steyer. From Forbes, 2019...

Tom Steyer Buys Trump Campaign URL, Uses Site to Call President a ‘Fraud and Failure’

Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer bought himself an early holiday gift on Monday. The hedge-fund billionaire purchased the domain name associated with President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign, “Keep America Great.”

The site, keepamericagreat.com, directs to a sales page for a $1 Steyer bumper sticker which reads, “Trump is a fraud and a failure,” in bold text.


Maybe he sold it to the Biden campaign.

Since they're already flagrantly violating of the Hatch Act, I'm waiting to see how soon the campaign will use the "dot-Gov" domain.

If you look at the domain name history, it was registered on 6/25/2015 with an expiration of 6/25/2021.

2015 is when Brad Parscale became the digital media manager for Trump’s campaign. His company did website and marketing work. The timing of getting that in 2015 and making sure the expiration would last through the next election cycle doesn’t seem like a coincidence.

Brad Parscale pushed the “Keep America Great” slogan. Right up until getting pushed out of the campaign on July 15th.

Now a month later, that website is owned by the Biden campaign. The registration had a year left. This wasn’t a forgotten about site that was left to expire. It was sold from one party to another.

This is my guess as to who sold it:
