If Trump is f'ing the LGBTQ folks would that make him LGBTQ himself and therefore f'ing himself?jedbartlet02;1823156 wrote:Not if you're LGBTQ, Muslim, or Mexican. Trump is going to fuck them hard

He has said it should be determined by the states, not banned across the US (at least in the speeches I saw anyway).Fab4Runner;1823173 wrote:.

He wont eliminate obamacare. Taking way the covering would be political suicide. He has talked about changing it, tweaking, and making it better and more affordable. Once that system was in place, it wasnt going to be taken away. I agree that Roe V Wade wont get over turned and gay marriage will continue to be a state issue.sleeper;1823182 wrote:A lot of people think he's going to overturn Roe v.

Obamacare is the only thing that I legitimately think is in immediate jeopardy. He will have a GOP Congress that is ready to green light the elimination of that healthcare system but as far as everything else I don't think he has a chance in hell. It's very difficult to overturn SCOTUS rulings and a good chunk of the GOP doesn't like Trump and won't back everything he says.
Our foreign relations are as good as fucked though. Good bye NATO and potentially the UN; NAFTA is out the door as well.
There is already a plan in place to carry out such an effort. The President Elect only needs to sign such a bill into law...which I think he would. The real challenge would be to get it to his desk.thavoice;1823190 wrote:He wont eliminate obamacare. ....

I am actually for gay marriage but just correcting the statement as best as I know Trump had said. He said it should be a states decision, he didn't say he wanted to ban them.Fab4Runner;1823199 wrote:Well I have no faith in backwards ass Ohio doing the right thing where gay marriage is concerned.
Agreed. Get gov out of marriage entirely. It's a legal contract between two adults. Let the drafted contract dictate the terms.thavoice;1823177 wrote:...

Was your candidate promoting that the federal government mandate gay marriage legal across the country?Fab4Runner;1823199 wrote:Well I have no faith in backwards ass Ohio doing the right thing where gay marriage is concerned.
I didn't truly support a candidate in this presidential election, but the one I supported in the primary was just fine with the SCOTUS ruling and had no intentions of trying to overturn it.thavoice;1823203 wrote:Was your candidate promoting that the federal government mandate gay marriage legal across the country?
We already know that you believe YOUR way is the 'right thing where gay marriage is concerned'.
Shocker, someone who screams "trump's a bigot and racist and sexist!" Doesn't actually know the facts of their accusation.jmog;1823201 wrote:I am actually for gay marriage but just correcting the statement as best as I know Trump had said.

I don't like Trump. Hell I'm a republican who voted for Hillary. But I don't like trump because I don't believe he'd be able to accomplish anything as president. Not because CNN told me he was a bigot/sexist/racist.
Fair enough. Let's revisit this in 4 years and I bet that however things go in our lives it will be because of our choices, our paths and our beliefs and not any sitting president.Fab4Runner;1823205 wrote:I didn't truly support a candidate in this presidential election, but the one I supported in the primary was just fine with the SCOTUS ruling and had no intentions of trying to overturn it.
And yes, I believe my way is the right way. I believe in basic human rights. There are a lot of things I am willing to compromise on. This isn't one of them.
