Fuck you, I'd forgotten all about that bullshit.

I assume Trump just didn't pay the guy who made it

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't be surprised.

[โ€“] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Still defaced as of right now.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

It's a joy to be alive in this moment

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It still is 11 hours later.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Still is 13 hours after you. This is amateur hour.

[โ€“] grinde 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Still is 3 hours after you. What are we up to, 27 hours and counting?

The guy's twitter password was yourefired when it was hacked, then it was "upgraded" to maga2020! when it was hacked again. The sec researcher told him to add 2FA and a stronger password; he didn't.

So, yeah, not surprised

[โ€“] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

The hacker, whoever they are, crossed out Trumpโ€™s name and appended to the siteโ€™s banner โ€œAmerica Is Already Great.โ€

Let's see Donny wriggle his way out of this one!

It's days like this that make me wish I were a 1337 h4x0r.

Whoever did this... you forever have my gratitude and you are an inspiration to us all.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I doubt they needed to be a 1337 H4x0r in this case.

People voting trump generally aren't particularly smart and many of them have probably isolated themselves so much, they probably didn't have much real help.

Furthermore, knowing these kind of people, they probably didn't pay the guy who made it, and they probably defaced it (which wouldn't be a surprise).

The fact its still offline seems to suggest the latter

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ha! Ya know, you're probably spot on with this. I think by this point they have a pretty long history of not paying.

Regardless, I still want to be a hacker. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They probably just guessed the password to a WordPress site or something.

I'm surrounded by freaking idiots! โ€”Donald Trump/Dr Evil

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He has bragged about never hiring people he thought was smarter then himself.

Ah, the Ron DeSantis approach (see Thigh food lol)

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That was my biggest issue with the hack as well. America was never great.

THIS IS HOW HILLARY CAN STILL WIN hillgasm

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

How long before they declare Trumpism as a recognised medical condition?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

The most fundraising and winning "billionaire". Incredible how gullible these folks are that send their livelihood to Trumpicana.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That'll teach him for messing with

JUSTICE!
