Trump Addresses Libertarian Convention

I do not control anyone else's emotions, but I certainly know what to type to elicit the emotional response I desire from others, ie provoke. I am assuming that poster is also smart enough to do that. Others who contribute here ...I am less certain about.

 

They were saying "Booo-urns!"

 

You're welcome. But you ought to seek professional help, not mine.

 

Refreshing to see a candidate attempting to talk to groups that may not normally support them. Sure he expected some boos but he didn't get flustered and continued on. Biden on the other hand keeps pandering and yelling at the same groups with his negative message of gloom and doom. Not very inspiring and by not even trying to reach out to other groups his numbers continue to plummet.

 

So when you said his message of don't waste your vote wasn't received badly you have no proof. Gotcha. Cause we all have video evidence of it being received badly.

 

Can you imagine Biden doing this ?

 

Oh, it was humor. Telling them how inconsequential they are on the national stage was just endearing humor.
And the booing was just their way of showing support and agreement.
I get it now.
You know, it's like reminding a group of Gator football fans how the Gators have become a non-factor in the SEC and national championship picture. That's bound to draw some appreciative chuckles.

 

IMO the answer is this.

Of course, most people call it trolling.

 

The poster you are referencing is either a deeply brainwashed cult member or a poor excuse for a troll. Either way, his spamming of the board is really going to earn him a block soon.

 

When someone worships the ground a scumbag like Trump walks on and disseminates disinformation regarding him, I don't care if that person thinks it's civil discussion or not. The mods here can decide if it's over the line Sparky.

 

Trumpism and libertarianism seem to me to fundamentally incompatible doctrines. This sentiment from FA Hayek sounds about as far from Trump as you can get: “All political theories assume of course that most individuals are very ignorant. Those who plead for liberty differ from the rest in that they include among the ignorant themselves as well as the wisest.”

 

As a reminder, he is proposing the death penalty for people that "the system" decides are selling drugs. Except for well-connect drug dealers. Those guys get pardons.
