  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

DNC to troll GOP debate by flying anti-MAGA banner


The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has plans to troll the Republican presidential primary debate in Milwaukee on Wednesday by flying a plane pulling a banner that knocks the “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement around the venue.​
The banner is set to read “GOP 2024: A Race for the Extreme MAGA Base,” a DNC spokesperson confirmed to The Hill.​
The plane and banner, set to take flight Wednesday night, come as part of an aggressive media blitz from the DNC and the Biden campaign as Republican White House hopefuls gather in Milwaukee to take the debate stage.​
There is no truth to the report that the plane is zero emissions, nor is it accurate that the pilot shout nanny nanny boo boo out the window.

I'm gonna tell myself that, were it not for the writer's strike, the DNC could've come up with something funny.

I'm not sure what adjectives are appropriate for a group that thought "A Race for the Extreme MAGA Base" constituted trolling.

I'd feel better about it if the pilot was the brother in law of somebody at the DNC and this was all a kickback scheme.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was.

Oh, then that makes it ok!
What, exactly, is not-ok with it?

They didn't streak across the stage or something. They flew a banner in the same city.

Nobody here made a big deal when trump did it in 2019. That is why President Biden doing it today is not OK. It is a double standard thing, I guess.

Trump - invades everything I understand - every thought, every post every news story, Trump somehow gets introduced into it.

However:

This thread is not about Trump
You cannot use Trump as an excuse
You cannot justify, nor complain of the DNC actions because of Trump.

I don't care if Trump paints himself purple, runs across the stage saying "I'm a grape - squeeze me". The DNC's actions should stand or fall all themselves. Trump is not part of the DNC and unless there is some type of psychological issue where Trump is in the minds of the DNC - he has ZERO to do with this.

My opinion

He did not invade my post.

What is wrong with the DNC flying a banner ad in the same city and on the same date as the RNC debate?

You do realize that there were critical Trump questions and discussion in the Republican debate from which he was absent, right?

As of now its just about the biggest distinction among the various non-Trump candidates: will you support Trump or wont you?

Open a thread on this new subject and we can talk - until then, please stay on topic - which once again is NOT about Trump.

Yes he did -

GOP 2024: A Race for the Extreme MAGA Base

At best seems juvenile trolling -
The post or the flying-of-a-banner?
Because it fits in both instances and are perfectly normal.
