Donald Trump gets LGBT support boost after Orlando shooting
The Inquisitr News ^ | June 14, 2016 | Tara Dodrill

Donald Trump appears to have lured a growing number of LGBT voters away from his Democrat challenger, Hillary Clinton. Trump’s speech after the Orlando shooting by a self-avowed ISIS terrorist has earned him the steadfast loyalty of gay Americans who are now keenly focused on national security, immigration, and terrorism matters.

A Newsmax report about the surging Donald Trump gay support offered a roundup of both social media and editorial pieces detailing why they will not be casting a ballot for Hillary Clinton in November. The refusal by progressive or liberal politicians to utter the phrase “radical Islamic terrorist” is the most often cited reason LGBT community members feel their lives will be much safer under a president Trump.

“I’m American, I’m gay. I used to think Trump was full of [expletive]. Today everything changed. My friend was one of the victims in Orlando, I’ve never been more ready for Trump to take office,” Reddit user “4yyy” posted to the website. ” “I’m shaken. I’m a mess. I’m broken, but I’ve never been more determined for a leader to actually take charge and make a change. How do I get started? How do I help this man lead us into a safer country.”

While Donald Trump’s speech after the Orlando shooting focused on radical Islamic terrorism and national security, Hillary Clinton’s address was largely centered on both gun control and a desire to not express more hate by chastising all Muslims or employing more stringent immigration standards of people from the Middle East....

Gays with a survival gene are ditching Clintoon going to Trump, after gays were slaughtered in Orlando by one of Clintoon’s wonderful peaceful Muslim buddies.

My daughter and I were in Disney World twice in April due to Cheer Worlds and Dance Worlds as well as the Dance Summit. These events literally brought in thousands upon thousands of children from all over the world. They close down Hollywood Studios one night just for this event and it is more packed that night than any regular day. 2-3 hour wait on the big rides. All teenagers and some coaches but mainly all kids. All you have to do to get in is to buy the $45 arm band at the door. The thought of this man being there and watching our kids and thinking how to hurt not only them but the families with small children, the grandparents bringing their grandkids just sickens me.

Ovomit is not a president of all the people but only the ones that fuel his agenda!

Isn't that exactly what he based his campaigns on ?

This is about protecting the gay constituency voting block.

No, it isn't. It's about using the gay constituency to further gun 'control' of the US populace so that they cannot revolt against our current Muslim/Socialist leadership.

Welcome to the New Socialist Caliphate of the Western Hemisphere.

Huh?

The 10 million voters didn’t have anything to do with the primary for an election that has not happened yet.

It is time that the LGBT, etc. community woke to reality. The DNC wants Muslim support who BTW wants to kill all LGBT etc. community members.

That might amount to maybe 0.02% of the vote but every vote helps save us from Hellary.

Re: your comments about Disney being scouted by Mateen—
Fox News online just posted photo of Mateen and his gorgeous wife—who knew, and helped him scout the gay club—and his cute child.

The adorable little boy is wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt.

Looks like a family of Moderate, peaceful, Muslim Americans.
And the child will grow up being told his father was a “martyr” for Islam who is now in “paradise.”

So IOW, wondering if ANY of these people, really are peaceful Americans, or moles planning to kill us all, makes ME a bigot.

I still think that Trump could cement a lot of the LGBT vote, and more importantly social media support, by in a manner of speaking, investing in the gun market.

Get the involvement of Pink Pistols with a gun giveaway to LGBTs, a special designed ‘Trump’ model pistol, as party favors. It would be a huge and very cost efficient advertising scheme.

He would commission say, 5,000 guns worth $500 each, that are engraved “Property of Pink Pistols. Not for resale.” Total cost, $2.5 million. They would be the headline in every newspaper in the US, and splashed all over the TV news. Tens of millions of dollars of free advertising.

And hopefully, Hillary would rant against it.

If it was a huge hit, it could be followed up by a similar program to poor black people who live in high crime areas.
