Trump Doesn’t Have All The Domains You’d Expect Him To Have

October 24, 2016 by Michele Neylon

Donald Trump is apparently planning to launch a television network, but he does NOT have trump.tv. He also doesn’t have trump.org.

Visit either and you’ll get this message:

This site is not owned by nor affiliated with Donald Trump or any of the trademark holder(s) of the Trump name.
Vote NO to Trump
He wasn’t even organized enough to purchase this domain (or www.trump.tv) at public auction, and he wants to run the U.S.A.?
Days after I won this domain at public auction I received a letter from Trump attorneys threatening to sue me for trademark infringement for purchasing this domain.
Guess who still owns the domain… not that guy!

trump-domains

The domain registrant might lose the domains in UDRP, but they might not. The term “trump” is not exclusive to Mr Trump so who knows?
