https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/205174/6f473fb4-3fa7-4834-894d-f112b3a27b1c/image.png The Trump organization owns over 3,000 web domains, including TrumpFraud.org and TrumpScam.com. It’s standard practice for big companies to buy up names that might insult their brands, but it looks like the Trump regime forgot one. The domain TrumpHotels.org is now a parody website that features photos and video of the U.S. government’s child concentration camps. The domain was registered just last week on June 20th, though it’s not clear who operates the site. The bulk of the text on the website come from Trump’s own words, including his rants about Mexicans being rapists and his reveling in authoritarian power. The graphics on the site show asylum seekers in cages that were built by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, including the kids separated from their parents under Trump’s “zero tolerance policy.” When you click on various links on the website it takes you to news stories like this one from Time magazine titled, “Here Are All The Times Donald Trump Insulted Mexico” and this one from Fortune magazine titled, “Trump Says Men Who Take Care of Their Kids Are ‘Acting Like the Wife.’” Another link about “handicap accessibility” links to a YouTube video of Trump mocking a disabled reporter. But the thing that first hits you are the photos of children in cages. But whoever runs TrumpHotels.org is obviously expecting some heat from the Trump regime. There’s a long disclaimer at the bottom that pre-emptively explains that the website is protected speech under the First Amendment: "TrumpHotels.org is intended for entertainment, satirical, and political commentary purposes. It is an overt exercise of political speech, and it does not serve any commercial purpose. This site has no relationship to any commercial establishment or resort, it does not offer any similar products or services such as those provided by any commercial establishments or resorts, and it is in no way intended to deceive or create confusion with or to suggest sponsorship or endorsement by any other business or trademark holder. The use of any intellectual property, including trademarks or names of public figures, is protected under fair use, as TrumpHotels.org serves to comment on social and political issues and problems regarding the federal immigration policies of President Donald J. Trump, as well as other statements and actions made by Mr. Trump, through the use of ridicule and criticism. See the U.S. Trademark Act of 1946, 15 §§ 1051 et seq.

I was able to see the site
It's back for me now, too. Looks like it was just traffic.
.org is down for me
probably reddit hug of death or pro-trump ddos
It's likely just people wanting to see for themselves and traffic is just to much.
This strongly reminds me of GlennBeckRapedAndMurdered­AYoungGirlIn1990.com
Those guys are probably going to be looking at a big, fat settlement of misappropriated campaign funds.
And thanks to that case, there's no way Trump can sue this site out of existence.
se habla español made me snort i hope they make a bank from this if trumpy wants to get rid of it
