Hours after Donald Trump suggested the U.S. ban Muslims from entering the United States, the leading Republican presidential candidate said America should also consider âclosing the Internet up in some wayâ to fight Islamic State terrorists in cyberspace.
Trump mocked anyone who would object that his plan might violate the freedom of speech, saying âthese are foolish people, we have a lot of foolish people.â
âWe have to go see Bill Gates,â Trump said, to better understand the Internet and then possibly âclose it up.â

Doesn’t he have to get Gore’s permission first?
Waiting to see if this is something he actually said.
We are going to have to stop Islamic terrorism. Europe will soon be overrun.
Any ideas are welcome I would imagine
Was walking into church today thinking about all the precautions I take loading up my pocketbook in cas someone comes in starts shooting. I always think, “ where am I going to go unde there out that door to get help. I’d head back in if I could be of help
Well I’ve been shot at u these people so I guess that’s part of it but geeze. Come on
People could read he accounts of what they do once in a while
The patriot Act showed us how these types of laws are misused by democrats.
Trump sayeth — “we’re losing a lot of people because of the Internet. We have to see Bill Gates and a lot of different people who really understand what’s happening and maybe, in some ways, closing that Internet up in some ways.”
Uh, Ok, Donald. Good luck with that.
Give his chakras a tickle and he'll agree to anything!
It would have to be related to taking down Islanist recruiting sites, and work with the ISPs, whether they are cooperative or not.
B/S. He wants to shut down the Muslim terrorists who use the internet to ply their criminal and subversive trade. That would be a very difficult task, but some of it could be done.
the melt down of trump is happening right now. he is making himself as unelectable as Jeb bush with his own words. I am sorry to all those supporting him but I think his statements are going to get more and more non mainstream as he gets more positive feed back. I myself Love 80 percent of what he says and that 80 percent is wright on target. It is the other 20 percent that scares me.
Send a long line of Buddhist monks — they will give him each the $5,000 maximum donation.
Wow, I’m smelling desperation!
GOPe and Dems, not trump. They’re throwing anything they can think of against the wall, praying something, anything, sticks.
I think this one he will walk back. Assuming he actually said it.
I would support more aggressively taking down jihadi web sites. Does that count as rolling up the internet?
The relevant bits.
Oh, yeah. This one will definitely bring him down.
THAT was the first Donald Trump scarey talk
I think that is what Trump is talking about
Don’t take down the Islamic websites, infiltrate their sites and take necessary actions against those who communicate on those sites.
No he isn’t and you are full of it.
