Quick summary

On wordpress.com I found myself in a login loop trying to authenticate/create a new account with google auth. I believe this is because that google email address used to be associated with it (it no longer is).

Steps to reproduce

This is probably not reproducable unless you once had a google email associated with an account. and I believe you may have to have 2fa enabled on your current account. But I've copied my repro steps below.

0. ensure you're logged out of wordpress.com
1. Go to wordpress.com type in a domain to register
2. Select the one you want and click "continue"
3. Click "just buy a domain"
4. Click "continue with google"
5. Sign in to google account
6. Note the error
7. Click "login now" in error message
8. Try login with the email address used as before
9. Note that it says no account exists with that email address

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

An account should be created so I can complete the purchase of the domain

What actually happened

An error is shown saying 2fa is enabled, the "login now" link goes to login page and when trying to login with that email address it says the account does not exist.
