Awful lot of newbies signed up in the last few weeks that are ecstatic about Trump. Just a coincidence, I'm sure.

If they're sincere in supporting Trump, I see no reason to zot them just over the born on date. This last FReepathon took over 70 days to complete and if newbies are treated as pariahs here, it will be tough for those with tenure to speed things along. I'm still considered a n00b here because of being here for a a mere five years. And one of the most active FReepers assisting with the 'thons also has a somewhat recent born on date.

It can't just be the FRe (Free Republic Elite) from the pre-2000 years keeping this site active and vibrant. Some (like me) don't have a whole lot of years ahead and some young 'uns -- so long as they're thoroughly Conservative -- can keep Free Republic at the top.

Not wanting to zot them just find it amusing.

Know Trump is no Conservative but he is saying things that need to be said, knows how to handle the media and has the GOPe and the dems scared which is a good thing.

Thanks for the welcome. Trump should start campaigning more in New York just to stick it to the Media Elites. Hold a campaign rally blocks from their cushy studios which would result in the on air commentators reduced to complaining about how they were late to work again because Trump held is 5th campaign rally that same week. They would have to give him more air time because he's in their own back yard. He shouldn't be obnoxious about it, but just show them who is boss in the Big Apple.

Have the Live with Kelly and Michael morning show interrupted with Trump coverage. That would get him tons of free real time press. Have him interrupt SNL or the Late Show. New Yorkers love Trump. The elites on the other hand….
