The domain had been under privacy for years, the last known registrant was a Jeff Nesler who seems to dabble in political domains, he owned Politics2012.com at the time and Politics2016.com, 2012 was caught by DropCatch and is now a parked page, 2016 dropped. He had registered BarackObamaForPresident.org way back in 2004.

I wonder if he tried to sell the name to the campaign and they had no interest, and if $1,526 was just a waste of money if that indeed is the case.
On the flipside opponents of the sitting President might have plans to use the domain for other purposes.
*Keep posts on topic, the other post about GoDaddy taking down a website had political connotations to it, so we allowed political discussion. This post is just about the domain name, not healthcare, immigration, your political views, etc…
I have celineforpresident.com but not thinking how much value is?
I have TrumpSequel.com for sale with least one million Google Search results so it must be big news indeed?
I have forprimeminister.com .. great for any prime minister candidates..
Worthless. He won’t run again. The only reason he hasn’t quit yet is because he doesn’t want to completely kill his brand.
His brand is dead already except for favor selling and trinket sales to losers.
I have michelleobama2020.com… only because I had noticed that 4 or 5 others had placed a backorder for the drop on Namejet so I placed one there and on Dropcatch just for fun to see what it was going to go for but then I ended up being the only one to place the backorder on Dropcatch so I ended up with it. Doh! I hate when that happens lol.
The name will only be useful if he is running for second term or if the opponents have any negative plan to use it for.
Is Trump _as_ President worth $1,526?
no
