Should Trump supporters be banned from this forum?

[Brian4Liberty]

Nobody has a clue of what Trump stands for only that he will build an enemies list of anyone that disagrees with him and will monitor them through the NSA and punish them through the IRS.

That's Obama. Trump promises to be tougher than that on his (domestic) enemies and dissenters.

You left out Trump's support for illegal domestic spying ala Chris Christie, and foreign policy from John Bolton and Bibi...

Executing Snowden, changing his abortion positions every 3 1/2 days...

I'll come out for Trump if the Yes vote is won! Come on Trumpers!

Look at his favorable splits in NH and Iowa, two places where he was once beloved. His numbers have taken a huge hit.

I take it you watch lot of news, they do they same thing you did. 'his favorable splits' does not refer to anything in reality. There are polls, and methodologies, and margin of error, and outliers, it takes research to come to a conclusion about what it is likely a snapshot of today in one segment of the population is like.

'Taken a huge hit' is scareword for 'I don't want to look it up myself'.

Often dropping favorables are from attack ads in the area, and we know talk radio and con-servative TV are running free ones all the time.

Deviating from what created the Randslide in Kentucky. Rand Paul was arguably the most popular Republican in the countryside. He was a folk hero superstar who wasn't worried about focus groups and other nonsense. He was more off the cuff like Trump. Then he came to Washington and changed for the worse as he became seduced with the idea of running for POTUS.

Kentucky is not America, and political landscape has changed. However you see Trump, Rand is not that, and I'm glad. Trump's recipe is a shotglass on fire.

He can build a wall no one can climb over.

Of course, he has never built a wall in his life, he has never designed a wall in his life, and thousands of prison architects have been trying to build a wall no one can climb over for millennia and no one has done it.

But Trump can. He obviously can, since he said he can, and even though he has obviously lied before, this statement you can take to the bank.

And if you can't see these obvious facts, you're too stupid to understand the pablum the Establishment Media is shoving down your throat on behalf of the very Anti-Establishment Guy who had Bill and Hillary at his wedding.

Now aren't you ashamed for doubting it?

That's right.

Perception is reality, folks. And if you can't perceive this bullshit as reality, then you need to run to your doctor as fast as you can and demand he put you on the same drugs as the rest of the sheep. Otherwise, the herd will leave you behind.

You all see these sheep dogs barking their heads off. Hurry up and go get sheared. The whole herd is doing it.

Guess this is what the forum is now here for.

Why ban them? How else are they going to learn?

They aren't learning.

They aren't learning.

They are abusing the privilege of being a part of this fine community.

And no abuser ever learned anything from being allowed to do whatever anti-social thing he wants to do. Including spamming. They don't learn until they aren't getting what they want. As any formerly abused spouse can tell you.

As long as they can do whatever they want, no matter how obnoxious, they will. In fact, they'll just keep ramping it up and going even further over the top.

Even the ones who have a financial stake in not getting banned will eventually either get overconfident or just downright curious, and push the envelope harder and harder. Having long since had his every sensible-sounding argument thoroughly disproven, jj has already been reduced to accusing others of what he's guilty of and generally flinging vitriol in another thread. The last resort of any abuser.

I feel like some of them are only trolling - that can be the cause of a ban - if overdone.

Otherwise, it's part of the republican electorate that one needs to convert to Rand to win.

What? Is that not what this forum was founded for--to facilitate the confusion of our enemy's enemies?

I don't see how politeness could help with that chore. These are Trump fans, after all. Comity doesn't seem to be something they respect. 2x4s, perhaps. Civility, never.

I think the reason of the No votes is that you'd miss the Trump posts. You may hate them but maybe you love the feeling of that hate. It is addicting. All you need to do is find things about your candidate and flood out the Trump supporters. Then stop responding to those temptingly delicious click bait post about Trump. Or you could end the Old Right coalition and do a banning. Come on join the ban side!

Either that or we have no need or desire for our own Howard Cosells, but instead have principled reasons for preferring to pwn them.

Only problem is, they're paid to do it and I'm not. And while I have been getting some fine help, I'm getting tired of repeating myself in the face of an avalanche of spam.

I think they are paleoconservatives (Pat Buchanan supporters). They were here back when I was posting back in 2007. What happened to the 9/11 truthers? They were huge back then. The paleoconservatives may stop if Trump drops in the polls and someone else with similar immigration views takes the lead over him. Immigration is very big issue across rural white Americans from paleo's to Christian Zionist. Trump speaks paleo very well and he is winning right now. He is a great sophist. He knows how to work a crowd. Libertarians are for open borders but the conservative portion of the Ron Paul movement is not. Trump talks really tough on this issue. It is appealing to people.

Sorry, but I'm getting really annoyed with the Trump supporters and how they act here. All they do is constantly talk about Trump and never offer anything of substance. They're supporting a big government statist who's a sworn enemy of liberty. That makes them enemies of liberty as well. Should we allow enemies of liberty to post here? Thoughts?

Here we go again. How many thousands of pages is this irrelevant nonsense going to generate? Sorry, but this is so bush-league.

You cannot be talking about the long-haired girly-man who sings cheese music over whom women not worth a first look get all gushy in the panties.

Right?

I can't fucking believe I just got sucked into their lame thread. I will attempt to work up the nerve to shoot myself tonight.
