The Trump/Republican Primary/General Election Megathread

[jbombelli]

Was it one member killing another one?

No. There was a bad cop involved in the story. My point is, INGO supports the king's men, even when they're corrupt.

Or rather, one particular moderator does, and he's still around.

I've been infracted for saying that if somebody killed a certain person that did a certain thing (wasn't even a politician), and I ended up on the jury, I'd vote to acquit.

You mean, three years ago when you posted this lovely tidbit to the open forum...

I don't know. But I can tell you this: if somebody came along and murdered that judge and those marshals, and I ended up on their jury, they'd walk.

Yeah...that moderator way WAY out of line for writing you an infraction...which is literally nothing more than an "official" PM.

Three years...man, it's time to let this one go.

 

[PaulF]

This forum has rules.

The rule against discussing insurrection is in place because Federal Law Enforcement actively monitors this forum.

Subpoenas have been issued because of things posted here.

Fenway wants INGO to be here tomorrow, and so do I

I enjoy using this site, and I enjoy NOT being locked up in an unmarked Federal detainment facility.

If you want to talk about using violence against the government, or supporting others who do, you must do it elsewhere...end of story.

Did you not get the point of what I was saying? Not referring to that post you dredged up, which wasn't against the rules, but my warning earlier this morning.

Ok.

You were warning people not even to treat into those waters because of how over-zealous you feel we are with enforcement of this rule.

I understand.

Now. Understand me: LET IT GO.

[jbombelli]

All I was doing was warning people not to tread those waters. You're the one who dredged that post back up and put it back into public view.

If you are really worried about a subpoena or what people will think you might want to delete this whole chain of posts.

Not trying to argue... just saying.

Sometimes, a motivated opposition IS the best thing for our rights...it reminds us that we need to exercise those rights, and to be vigilant against their abuse.

Before Obama got elected "cheap" AR15s ran over a thousand dollars, and NO ONE I knew owned one. After 8 years of the irritant in chief, I can buy a complete rifle for under five hundred bucks, and every one of my friends own AT LEAST one.

Whatever your ideological spin might be...more gun owners expressing their rights is a win for gun rights.

Obama has done our movement far more good than harm, whether you want to admit that it not.

I agree with your statement 110% , but do you believe that this was his intent. I don’t believe so, i believe he and HRC wants to dismantle this country and give birth to the new Socialist party. I put nothing past them don’t trust them as far as i could throw them and will not support anyone who does.

Back on topic, Trump released a bit of an odd ad...

I don't say much, but people love it?

 

[jamil]

Hell. All that matters is that Trump says it, or approves of it. They sure applauded the demcratic talking points more emphatically than they would have when the other side says it.

 

[nate77]

NAFTA, NATO, and now WTO.

Trump says US could pull out of World Trade Organization

I'm sure the globalists are quaking in their boots at the thought of a Trump presidency.

I think it would help if they could just get media to stop the straw monsters. Democrats in collusion with media, including hollywood, have created a climate where many people think it's actually immoral to be Republican, that Republicans and conservatives are evil and must be stopped by any means.

Or start promoting younger Conservative politicians that can relate better than these 70/80-somethings that are running things now.

Emphasize personal freedoms and liberties, open up on the social issues (a bit).

That would help. But Jon Sterwart will still make straw monsters and destroy them on national TV. Ask the average consumer of that what conservatives believe. You'll be taken aback by how horrible you really are. In my field there is no shortage of Millennials arround to test the theory.

On the domestic front: focus on the economy...for all Americans, not just gutting the middle class so the good times continue to roll for the wealthy. That means real, organic wage increases for everyone, low inflation, and an honest conversation about immigration, healthcare, and military spending. More dollars in more pockets means more vote for republicans.

Why don't they get that?

Forget the social platform entirely. Individual liberty is incompatible with the federal government telling people what is right or wrong. The war on drugs, the constant distractions with "bedroom behaviors"...you guys need to stop. Let the democrats be the party of big government...be an actual alternative!!!

As expected, National Review can't see the forest for the trees.

Donald Trump, and people like him are the remake of the Republican party. Nationalism, America first; an to end globalist policies like open boarders, and unfair trade deals.

The old guard, like National Review, Glenn Beck, Ted Cruz, and and the Bush Crime Syndicate are being purged from the party as we speak.

If the new Republican party is Liberalism 2.0... no thanks, I'm glad I'm done with it.

Sounds an awful lot like Trump's platform.
