To the mods about banning

Half these "moderate" republicans irritate me at times too with the incessant Trump bashing, that being said, these are the sorta people we should focus on pulling back in for future years, isn't banning them just forcing them into the dems hands? I might get banned for this, but I think, even if we (I certainly do) disagree with them, banning them is not correct

We try not to ban any Republicans. If you look into the post histories of the people claiming to be moderate Republicans who were banned you'll find a lot of people who voted for Hillary or were shilling for Bernie.

And if their comment history is so bad that we can't tell if they are a moderate Republican or a Trump hating socialist, then we can't allow them to stick around and continue to drag the sub to the left.

I voted for Hillary but I'm a registered Republican, and would've voted Trump over Bernie any day. The candidates you vote for in any ONE given election do not reveal your conservative, centrist, or liberal nature.
