would probably have sold it for a price, but Ted was too cheap to buy it. A guy bought the BernieSanders.com domain, but when Bernie offered to buy it, the guy wouldn't take money. He just wanted to meet Bernie and talk to him for a few minutes.

The main reasons a person buys up a domain name such as this is to sell it at a later date for a profit.

Ted Cruz was obviously too cheap to buy this one, and in the end he's paying for it by being laughed at each time someone goes there by mistake.
