While, for the most part, the GOP debate last night was a snoozefest back and forth between the dullest candidates to grace a podium, Rand Paul once again stood out as the clear and concise voice of reason whenever he made a point.
One such point in question was regarding Donald Trump’s professed plan to ‘close the internet’ to combat terrorism.
Trump declared that terrorists recruit online and that he is of the opinion that extremists should not be able to use “our internet.”
“I don’t want them using our internet to take our young, impressionable youth and watching the media talking about how they’re masterminds — these are masterminds. They shouldn’t be using the word ‘mastermind’,” Trump said.
Trump further proposed working with “our brilliant people from Silicon Valley” to “figure out a way that ISIS [Islamic State, IS] cannot do what they’re doing.”
