I'm new here so I've stayed out of the threads where long-time TBR posters deal with differences which might have recently emerged.  But I'm curious - given the advice you gave to FReepers above, which I've shown in bold, what is your purpose in posting on TBR?

Habit, and it's got better software too.

Let's stop playing these games.

We know who Trumpette references.  Those of us who support Donald Trump.

If you new folks want to have a civil conversation with a Trump supporter you gonna have to talk nice to us. It's common courtesy.

Like I said, I'm a counterpuncher. Insult me, you'll get it back.

By the way, I heard you engage in thoroughly trashing free republic. Is that true?

Yeah, you. You know who I'm talking to.

Ummmm............ you're certainly aware of the beating some of our newcomers have taken at TOS, aren't you?

NO one here has subjected you to that kind of abuse, and you know it.

There is NO comparison between criticizing the abuse that's taken place at TOS, and your going there to trash us.

Almost everyone here left TOS at some point because of the vile behavior there.  It's never been that way here, and it never will be because this is a well-run forum that allows multiple different viewpoints.

If this were FR, you would have been banned long ago for what you've done.

My soul is in trouble, I have moral problems, and I used to be decent. Until I supported a Republican presidential candidate by the name of Donald Trump.

Could other Trump supporters from FR not also appreciate the software and enjoy the same respect you are shown?

You'd get a lot more respect around here if you'd rebut the article and not make (stupid) personal attacks on those of us who don't support Trump.

How do you defend his wanting to take away the gun rights of innocent people?  How do you defend his accusations against our troops in Iraq?

How about a substantive response?

They can't.  They're too busy accusing us of making personal attacks and flagging every post to the Mod staff because we said something negative about their prince.

Meanwhile….. you and I are psychos.

Absolutely. There are plenty of new free republic arrivals who dropped the vitriol and speak to us Trump supporters like intelligent human beings.  Instead of Satan's seed.

Broad terms are par for the course.  They do not constitute personal insults and do not justify personal attacks in response.

Your post is just sick coming from an adult.  A pre-teen juvenile trying to be clever - I can understand.  Not an adult, not someone who wants to be taken seriously and certainly not someone who wants to influence anyone.

Listen, I gave the refugees from free republic several weeks to decompress. Finally it's beginning to happen. But there are still hold out, who want to keep reliving the primary, or hope for a contested convention which will kill our chances to defeat the Democrats.

Primary is over. At least start "trying" to rally around the GOP nominee.

But your counsel to them, if they are Trump supporters, was to not come to TBR because they would not enjoy it, and that most TBR posters are #nevertrump with whom argument is like arguing with a fencepost.  Do you believe that, or do you believe that you are shown respect by many at TBR and that "plenty of new free republic arrivals ... dropped the vitriol and speak to us Trump supporters like intelligent human beings"?

Primary is over start. Trying to rally around the GOP nominee.

Did I miss the convention?   Did actual delegates cast actual ballots to actually elect Trump the actual GOP nominee?

No.  Trump is not the nominee right now and there is nothing to rally round, even if iron-fisted party loyalty were acceptable (which it is not).

In the case of Trump and his caucus, everything is an insult.

Nah, we're just mental cases and tree stumps according to you.

Which would explain why pissing on a mentally deficient tree stump is perfectly acceptable to you and yours.

You stated on FR that Trump supporters should not come here because they would not enjoy arguing with fenceposts.  You've stated here that you, a Trump supporter, personally enjoy respect are spoken to like an intelligent human being.

Which is true?

I see a bunch of whining, pissing and moaning from some but very little of what I would call personal insults and when personal insults have occured they have been quickly and effectively dealt with by managment.    It is  my opinion that YOU'RE  insulted only because you havent been able to cajole others into seeing it your way.

As a rather rabid #Nevertrumper (oh, let's not beat around the bush), I've never thought any of you all trumpers were Satan's seed (well..., maybe one or two of you), but rather stumpy who is Satan's seed.

No.  Donald Trump has made you mean.  It's not your support for him.  It's that your support has changed your behavior.

You obviously can't see it, but it hasn't happened to every Trump supporter.

It HAS happened to you, because you used to be nice, and now you do nothing but whine, attack, and now betray the people on this forum who have treated you well.

You're not the others.  You're YOU.


And you did use to be a polite adult......

@INVAR

I'm still waiting for his answer as to how he defends Trump's wanting to take guns from innocent people and why he blamed our troops for stealing in Iraq.

I'd like to find out how one twists and turns the truth enough to make sense out of these latest Trump idiocies...
