Ted Cruz and his weird relationship with .com

Ted Cruz has a reasonable beef with Verisign.

The U.S. Senator from Texas, in his effort to win the Republican presidential primary, had to resort to using the address tedcruz.org, because tedcruz.com had been co-opted by someone else. Anyone visiting the .com address finds a picture of Hillary Clinton followed by the text, "Next President of the United States of America!!!"

Tedcruz.com, which is registered to an address in Scottsdale, Arizona, has migrated to a site favoring Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, from its previous iteration as a landing page that said, "Support President Obama. Immigration Reform Now."

Cruz has been trolled elsewhere.

Tedcruzforamerica.com is the landing page for a humor site called Maple Match, which claims to "Make dating great again." Taking the joke one step further, "Maple Match makes it easy for Americans to find the ideal Canadian partner to save them from the unfathomable horror of a Trump presidency," the page says.

And what happens when you type in presidentcruz.com?
