Should Trump supporters be banned from this forum?

[Lord Xar]

Perhaps create a Sub-Forum titled... "TRUMP TRUTH"... and it is inevitable that those supporting trump would go in there and see what it is about....

I mean, you can only live with cognitive dissonance so long before reality sets in, and you finally have that "AHA" moment... I think we could wisen up some of them..
To even fathom that trump is a conservative, let alone a republican is assanine.... my guess is these trump supporters do NO research on him, have no clue.... let them find out.. in a TRUMP sub-forum.. where there is only TRUMP TRUTHS.... showing his distaste for true conservative values.

I know the Breitbart types love him because they think he will do something about the border AND the fact he wants to turn the brown people in the middle east into a pile of bones.. they love blood, and ignorance over there. A LOT of Israel firster types... love them some welfare.

There are certain people on the RPFs who seriously advocate shooting illegal aliens when they cross the border. Trump supporters are way down the list of people to be concerned about 'round here IMHO.

Yup, I advocate the Border Patrol being able to do that. Absolutely.

 

[Omphfullas Zamboni]

Trump supporters, Sanders supporters–this place just needs to be busier.

 

[Origanalist]

No. You losers and beta males are just going to have to get used to it.

It really just seems like some conservatives or paleo libertarians or whatever will support Trump as long as he comes out and says that illegal immigrants are rapists, and it doesn't even matter what he says on anything else. He can be in favor of a single payer healthcare system, bailouts, stimulus spending, gun control, and practically every other liberal policy and they simply don't care. But Donald Trump calls illegal immigrants rapists and calls Rosie O'Donnell fat, and that's the only conservative principle that matters, because Donald Trump is being very anti "politically correct." Calling people names and demeaning and insulting people is now a more important conservative principle than reducing the size and scope of government. It's truly the most absurd thing I've ever seen in American politics.

Some are too insipid to realize there are other ways to fix the employment situation than deporting people, yes. Others just automatically fall in love with whomever the media plays up. Some want the country to burn. Some just want the GOP to lose. And some just want to be entertained, period.

WINNING!

 

[cajuncocoa]

No, but maybe we should have a poll whether those recommending such things should be banned.

LMAO at this. How hard did you try to have me banned just for questioning things about Rand? What is it about Donald Trump that excites you so much? His speech about getting Mexicans out of the U.S.?

 

[luctor-et-emergo]

We don't ban other liberals do we ?

 

[GunnyFreedom]

Banned? No, but I would like to see all the Trump spam quarantined somewhere so that people who come here to decide whether they want to support Paul or not don't get turned off and sent packing to Ted Cruz.

 

[CPUd]

The Trumpsters aren't really that bad if they keep it in the 2016 forum, even the occasional post or 2 in the Rand forum can be done with no problems. The main issue is with the Rand concern trolling, this is driving people away from the site even faster than the fundies and race baiters.

 

[Dianne]

I remember getting banned from Mitt Romney fan sites immediately. Some even had filters to block Ron Paul as if it was a swear word.

LOL, try signing up with Democratic Underground. The first few posts you make is held by admin.'s for review. If you say anything the least bit libertarian leaning,your membership is dropped. If you mention Ron Paul, your membership is dropped and they further punish you by putting you on the moveon. org subscription list, for life!!

No, but I do think the "top candidates" should get subforums so as each generates waves of media hype they're not spamming the overall "2016 Presidential Election" forum.



http://www.ronpaulforums.com/forumdisplay.php?350-2016-Presidential-Election

Would be nice if 2016 Presidential Election forum had subforums for each of the most noteworthy 4 candidates +Rand

We could keep it dynamic with an internal poll and update who gets 2016 subforum status monthly.


Certainly aggregating candidates such as Trump and Hillary would help clarify their positions.






subforum suggestion 2016 election: "top 3-5 plus rand"

Rand

Hillary
Trump
Jeb
etc.


post two polls once a month, maybe every other month if the aggregation is too time consuming:

1) who gets subforum status precedence? multichoice poll
2) how many 2016 election subforums? 1-10 poll


encourages participation
adaptive index on perception
political people like busy box polls

++ keeps discussion in ronpaulforums.com subforum "2016 Presidential Election" not 80% trump threads as he's currently generating headlines.

Out of rep


I voted no to banning though. I want to see what happens when the Trump SHTF.

 

[Ronin Truth]

What makes one a Trump supporter? Money, votes, campaigning for, agreeing with, not bitching about, etc.?

That's actually a good idea. We can tell someone to move their post to the Trump forum and bad rep them if they don't. That way those of us who have no interest in Trump are not forced to read about him in a Rand thread.

 

[juleswin]

My problem with Trump fanboys is mainly their dishonesty and the deception. One big Trump booster on here said in one thread that Trump is not his 1st choice, not 2nd, not 3rd but forth choice. But then he posts pro Trump threads all day. I don't even know who number 2 and 3 is.

Also this same Trump booster says he wants the country to burn but then his Trump posts all speak about how he would be good for American. I mean he is clearly trolling and lying his way on this forum. Had fire111 done 1/10 of what he is doing, he would be banned so fast and almost everyone here would cheer the ban.

Speaking of fire111 and bans, why is it ok to ban fire111 and not AuH20? It's only fair that both trolls get the same treatment. I wish there was half this support for fire111 when he was banned. He unlike the new Trump boosters, fire111 was fun and entertaining and his posts were far for informative and less trolling than anything AuH20 has ever posted.

I think it would be much more advantageous to Rand's campaign ban the Jesse Benton supporters.

Too late. That species recently went extinct.

 

[Aspie Minarcho-Capitalist]

No I don't believe they should be banned on the forum; Trump is right on the dangers of US's long lasting open borders policy, but seriously, what are his philosophical stances on the economy? For me he seems too much of a reaganite for my liking, he is in no way a threat to the establishment as compared to Rand Paul and even I'm skeptical of him.

 

[Smitty]

hardly
