Holy crap, it happened on Friday, and it's still up? Who the hell is running that site?

Someone who probably isn't paid enough to care. Or at all.

I mean, if someone didn’t ask Donald Trump to pay upfront, that’s kinda on them at this point.

For real. It’s one thing if you’re commissioned to build a site. It’s entirely different if you choose to build a site on your own time to support a candidate you like. The real issue would be if the site owner then tried to skim off the top of whatever donations get collected. Because at that point, it’s just straight up fraud.

Based on the Wayback Machine, it looks like the site was changed even before that: sometime between August 3rd and August 15th.

It's Tuesday my dude. Still up 👍

It's Wednesday my dude. The site was still hacked this morning, but has apparently been reverted now :(

It was a good run though, the hacker(s) couldn't have sent a better message.

Sigh, we'll always have the archive to reflect upon.

Guess he forgot to pay his web developer

Lmao I just checked it out. I love the simple language they use (they understand the audience lol) and how earnest the vandals are

Wait has everything trump done been under a PAC? Isn't the pac law literally written so that they don't have to disclose anything but what went in. IRS or any financial watchdog cant ask what happened to that money?
