Today is Coming Out Day
Here's how Trump has supported the LGBT community since taking office
1) Refused to publicly condemn or even criticize (much less punish) Russia, Saudi Arabia, Azerbaijan, and Egypt as they murder and jail LGBT persons for the crime of existing. Concentration camps for Gay persons? No problem, according to Trump and his SecState.
2) Supported a license to discriminate against every LGBT person, including support for the denial of health care access for LGBT persons.
3) Appointment of advocates of jailing Gay persons in the USA to prominent positions including the AG, and Federal Judges.
4) Trying to throw all Transpersons out of the military without consultation with their military leaders. Our first responders and military are to be venerated by Trumpers, so long as they're white, cisgendered, straight, etc. The rationale Trump used was that it was too expensive, but of course the military has spent millions more training those soldiers and the medical costs are less than Trump has spent on his golf trips or that the military has spent on viagara since he took office.
5) Blocked visas for persons fleeing literal death camps
6) Removed a Gay flag from the Natl Park Service's Stonewall monument (how friggin' petty can you be?). Meanwhile Confederate flags fly on Federal Property.
7) Voted in opposition to the death penalty for being Gay. No alternative resolution was proposed condemning and punishing nations that criminalize being Gay
8) On Friday, Trump will speak at (and implicitly endorse) a vicious hate group at a meeting in DC.
-----
Now on the not so genocidal/awful side.....Trump did appoint two rich Gay men to meaningless positions (neither have been confirmed and neither will be able to do anything pro-Gay in those positions). And he didn't remove existing non-discrimination protections for Federal workers (which is pointless since he's refusing to appoint any real amount of LGBT persons to anything). Meanwhile, anti-Gay homophobes are being appointed left and right to positions specifically for the purpose of harming LGBT persons.
---
Trump is a vicious hater of LGBT persons who runs an administration seeking to harm the LGBT community.
----
If there's a rational for anyone who doesn't hate the LGBT community to support Trump, I can't find it.

He's not a member of the LGBT community. He just reportedly has sex with men.
And yes, if you spend beaucoup dollars shutting down a website because they outed you, you aren't proud to be Gay. So he rejects the LGBT community. He appears to hate the LGBT community so much that he spent a lot of time and money retaliating against the people who called him a member of the LGBT community.
He appears to be concerned only with himself and his personal money.
And didn't he just take out citizenship in another country?

Huh. I thought you'd be in one of those FEMA internment camps by now.

RE: Today is Coming Out Day
My guess is Trump puts as much thought daily toward the 3% that make up that community as he does the 3% of Americans that like to ice fish. Just because it is the only thing that matters in your life doesn't mean it's really important to everyone else.

RE: Today is Coming Out Day
I will have to pay more attention. I thought it was because George W.Bush was a anti-gay racist who left more problems than Barack Obama could solve in only 8 years. It takes so much just to keep up with which Republican is blocking Gay Utopia.

So what percentage would we have to be for Trump to actually come out against Nazi style death camps run by his BFF? Asking for a friend.

The election of 2004 was almost exclusively about hatred of Gay persons.
But Trump and all his supporters are really ramping it up. I can't see W ignoring death camps and prohibiting refugees from death camps from coming to the USA.

11% is the correct number.
Do you have any more info on this gay Auschwitz with its gas chambers and piles of human bones? Asking for a friend who doesn't believe pointless hyperbole is helpful.

Google "Chechnya Gay Camps" and you'll get a full rundown. Let me know if you want any help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_concen...n_Chechnya

I must have missed the open borders for persecuted gays supported by Obama and Clinton.

Actually, under Obama, LGBT persons fleeing persecution were routinely given visas and asylum.
Try again.
