Ted Cruz Renewed SleazyDonald.us And DaffyDonald.us This Year

The domains, which were renewed in February, are registered to a TedCruz.org email address.

By Ashley Feinberg

Over the course of the 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump called Sen. Ted Cruz a liar and a wacko, wondered aloud about his father’s role in the assassination of John F. Kennedy, mocked the appearance of Cruz’s wife, humiliated him at the Republican National Convention and indirectly called Cruz “a pussy.” So it’s easy to understand why the Texas senator might feel a little animosity toward the man who finds no greater joy than pantsing Cruz before the American public. Or, perhaps, why he might hold on to the domains for SleazyDonald.us and DaffyDonald.us.

Of course, that’s not the face he has been showing to the public. “I am honored that President Trump is here endorsing and supporting my campaign,” Cruz told a stadium of 18,000 people in Houston last night, “and I look forward to campaigning alongside him in 2020 for his re-election as president of the United States.”

For years, in fact, we’ve been expected to believe that Cruz is fully in support of Trump. That their differences have been placed firmly behind them and, what’s more, that those differences have blossomed into a mutual respect.

“He’s not ‘Lyin’ Ted’ anymore. He’s ‘Beautiful Ted,’” Trump told reporters on Monday. Unfortunately for Trump, it’s hard to square praise from “Beautiful Ted” with Cruz’s renewal of the DaffyDonald.us and SleazyDonald.us domains in February. (It doesn’t appear that those sites have ever hosted content.)

According to the Whois record for DaffyDonald.us, the domain was originally registered to Ted Cruz in March 2016, with the contact email belonging to TedCruz.org. This in itself isn’t all that notable. At the time, Cruz was still campaigning against Trump for president. But a look at the more recent records for the domain shows that in November 2017, the expiration date was listed as March 2018.
