Can We Stop Freaking Out Over Trump's Bathroom Comments?
EEE | 21 APRIL 2016 | EEE

Here's what Trump said:

“Leave it the way it is. North Carolina, what they’re going through with all the business that’s leaving, all of the strife — and this is on both sides. Leave it the way it is.” He continued, “There has been so little trouble. And the problem with what happened in North Carolina is the strife and the economic — I mean, the economic punishment that they’re taking.”

(1) Where exactly, did Trump stand up for the rights of male perverts and trannies to take a whiz or go #2 alongside with or do worse things to little girls and defenseless women?

(2) Does NC (and other states) not have existing laws that punish offenders who engage in sexual exploitation of children or lewd sexual activities in public restrooms?

All Trump is saying is that trannies, feminine men, perverts, sickos, etc have been using male or female bathrooms for eons and no one has batted an eye up until now, when it's an election year and leftist groups foolishly believe that they can create a Todd Akin-narrative to portray Republicans and conservatives as anti-transgendered or anti-discrimination or something - and right on cue you have Rafael Cruz and other gutless Republicans who didn't stand with the NC Governor on this or did jack squat when SCOTUS decreed homo marriage on all 50 states - yapping like Yorkshires and pathetically playing the Left's game.

Trump simply did not take the bait. He is saying that NC shouldn't have went through the hassle of making new law when existing laws and mores served just fine and violators would be punished under current law.

So now, Christian conservatives are angry and threatening to stay home in a snit because Trump didn't just state the obvious truth that biological men should use the Men's restroom and women should use the Women's restroom (And I wished he would have. BTW - I do NOT agree with Trump on this, but merely posting his reasoning behind his statement) and leftists are upset because they won't have a narrative to club Trump over the head with throughout the election.

Both sides lost, which is EXACTLY what Trump wanted.

Now hopefully, Trump can continue to talk about the real issues that matter and disregard these questions that are designed to alienate social conservative support from him.

I can’t wait for all the small business owners to weigh after the government tells them they have to install a third bathroom.

The Americans With Disability Act did a lot of good, but it also was very expensive for American businesses. I’m physically disabled myself and I think it’s a shame the price that small business have had to pay for some of the really petty mandates. And that’s not even considering the predator lawsuits on small business.

The mediaPAC will be asking GOP candidates “gotcha” questions from now until the end if time. Always have, always will.

I don’t think I’m particularly “freaking out.” All this did was pretty much confirm for me what I was expecting all along from Trump. When it comes to anything remotely related to the GOP, and that includes Trump, my bleak pessimism is continually warranted.

Do you think these choices are easy to make?

Yes.


So a 40 year old man has the right to forcefully procreate with a 13 year old child and you say that should be an easy choice for the 13 year old and her family to make? The 13 year old should be forced to carry the baby to term.

The 40 year old father will go to prison for the rape, I don't even want to know your view on that. But does the 40 year old have an absolute right to create a child with a 13 year old rape victim? Does the rapist have a right to procreate at all costs?

This has to be a new low on here

Take someone like Cher’s kid with a penis - which bathroom do they use?

Then why did he say that Bruce Jenner can use any bathroom he wants in Trump towers?

It's his building.

I doubt Trump has spent 30 minutes total in his life thinking about gays and gay public policy.

Cruz on the other hand has sucked at the teat---along with his wife---of the taxpayer their entire adult lives. They would have no clue how to make it in the real world of work. I'm sure they know public policy inside and out. Trump knows work, business, government interference, bureaucrats, traitorous Washington Insiders opening our borders, giving away jobs, planting trojan horse terror cells, and giving away our treasure via trade agreements (the average tariff or tax on a US good exported to China is 35%, and many are prohibited for import into China entirely; goods that the USA IMPORTS from China have ZERO tariff/tax. Our leaders have INTENTIONALLY surrendered our economy and sovereignty to a communist enemy. THAT is the kind of thing TRUMP knows about. Not the history of gay rights or their sex practices.)

Republicans have controlled the House of Representatives for 18 out of the last 22 years.

Why haven't they defunded Obama's agenda on this?

Because they don't care. Not really.

The only thing that really matters to the GOPe, nowadays, is flooding what remains of our country with as many low-skill, unwilling-to-assimilate Mexicans and Muslims as can conceivably be made to fit, without actually capsizing the continent entirely.

That's it. That's all.

Yes and Trump just condemned those laws.

You are correct we should forget about his bathroom and abortion comments.

I'm not saying that at all. We should hold Trump's feet to the fire on abortion and other social issues. But the biggest priority for me is protecting America's sovereignty and our borders.

Well, under the current standards (leave it as it is) if a man goes into a women’s restroom, a woman might slap the crap out of him... or call a cop.

After Trumps remarks I guarantee he can’t win.

suuure it is - hold on to that, you’ll need it to comfort yourself I’m sure.

Hear about China blowing off a missile? How about Russia’s aggression? New tunnels found from mehico to San Diego?

But please, let’s all ring our hands over this non issue and turn into a gotcha. Pathetic

Just what have the conservatives done since they were elected? Not a thing

I suggest to post one Crocodile Dundee at the door of every bathroom in the country. Should he suspect any shenanigans, GRAB AND SQUEEZE!

Pulling his huge knife and stating in the best Australian accent: Sorry, mate! You’re going in the wrong bathroom and aye, THATS A KNIFE!

That will do it and solve the unemployment condition!

“Do you realize that Democrats think Ted will throw gays in jail and they they will run endless ads about a Theocracy?

Ted. Can’t. Win. “

From what I have seen, it seems to be more the Trump people who think and say that. Actually they seem to obsess about it, for some reason.

Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better.

Once people hear what he actually said as opposed to Teds lies about what was said, this won’t move the need one bit.

Another McCruz Nothingburger.
