How controversial given every other word from Donny is a lie. He's incapable of being honest.

These activists are not capable of being honest, this is what is clear.

Trump's administration has banned transgender people from the U.S. military, cut funding for HIV and AIDS research and supported the right of medical providers and adoption agencies to deny services to LGBT+ people.

Read that a few times before trying to defend Trump.

Anyway, if he was concerned about LGBT rights, he wouldn't have chosen Pence as vice-president.

Trump has set transgender rights back more than a decade. His assault on “others” — including trans people as well as races and religions — is disgusting and unAmerican.

Trump is no friend of freedom.

According to this headline gay sex = same-sex relations, homosexuality, LGBTQ, gay marriage and is a sexual orientation. In fact, most of the terms are being used inter-changeably. And I bet most people reading don't even understand how they aren't. And this is a huge part of the problem.

Also am disgusted by the idea that Trump should do something about the situations in other countries. He says " We (the U.S. government?) stand in solidarity with LGBTQ people? Well that is about all he should do....talk and stand. Maybe also accept refugees.

Stop advocating America be world police.

Want to watch Mike Pence have a brain-lock? Ask him if he supports Trump's LBGT position and if it is inconsistent with his conservative Christian religious beliefs....

Then watch him freeze for a good 2 minutes....before he says "I'll have to get back to you on that one"....

He'd probably do so to annoying the Islamics.

"Donald Trump's words at the U.N. do not just ring hollow - they are an unadulterated lie.

Trump's dishonest. Full stop. Period. Only his hardest core cultists might believe some things he says. The only defense his supporters might have is that he read from the teleprompter without having seen the script before. Which would make his supporters dishonest, too. But then Trump has attracted many like-minded followers.

He’s bad at reading it, that’s why people like him better off script and natural, the last guy needed a TelePrompTer because he couldn’t give a speech without it.

Oh, why are liberals grumpy all the time, how can you unequivocally say he’s not sincere in what he said? The liberal crystal ball?

-4 ( +0 / -4 )

Anyone that is bad at reading is unqualified to be POTUS.

Not only was Obama intelligent and competent, he could give a speech in the spot with no TelePrompTer because he was so intelligent and competent. Only utter morons claim otherwise.
