In contrast with Obama, Trump White House refuses to recognize LGBT ‘Pride Month’

WASHINGTON DC, June 4, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – Unlike President Obama who famously lit up the White House with the colors of rainbow flag, for the second year in a row President Donald J. Trump has chosen to let gay ‘Pride Month’ slide by with no official recognition.

The LGBT world has expressed displeasure with the President’s silence on the issue. The Human Rights Campaign (HRC)––the behemoth Washington, DC LGBT lobbying firm––sent out a tweet claiming that the silence is an indication the current administration wants to “erase” the presence of gays:

“In contrast with other cabinet-level agencies, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo who has been roundly criticised for his ‘anti-gay’ views, issued a statement recognizing June as LGBTI Pride Month.”

I’m surprised that Mike Pompeo would give this nonsense a second thought. He claims to be a Christian, and a devout one at that. I’ve heard him give speeches where he thanks God for all his blessings and says he would be nothing without the blessings of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Rex Tillerson, who had a lot to do with opening up the BSA to homosexuals, recognized “LGBT Pride’ month last year in June. I’m surprised at Pompeo.

If Trump were 1% the fascist you people claim he is you’d already be in camps picking the maggots out of your gruel and being transported every day to build the wall.

OMG! Everyone’s trying to erase straight people because there are no “Straight Pride Month” celebrations.

There should be no “pride months” at all for anyone.

No rainbow colored lights illuminating the people’s White House?

Refreshing.

Best election ever.

Surprised that the headline is not about a federal judge ruling that the White House MUST recognize Gay Pride Month.

Thank God Trump does not succumb to political correctness. PC is killing this nation.

Hide your shame faggots. Nothing to be proud of.

Not coming out for LGBT and all the pretty lights, doesn’t make the man any less Christian. We don have a Straight Pride month or Face Lift Month etc. etc. Why should Pompeo or any have to dance to other’s tunes just because of his job?

Celebrating homosexuals and lesbians for a month and me, a straight guy is considered a pig if I’d like to just have a single day to celebrate heterosexual oral sex. No justice.

What do LGBTI people have to be proud of that the rest of us don't have?

Take pride in your ability to flourish in the greatest country known to history.

Take pride in having the ability to support yourself without relying on a handout from the government.

Take pride in that the people who depend on you are well taken care of because of your sense of responsibility.

Take pride in your many life long and continuing accomplishments.

These are thing worthy of pride as opposed to your 'ever evolving gender' or sexual orientation.

Enough with the “pride” months ... How about some “shame” months instead.

I’m not sure I’d nominate LGBT for that (well, maybe the “T”), but here are some my top picks for “Shame” months.

1. Fake News Shame Month
2. PC Bullies Shame Month
3. Man-hating Feminists Shame Month
4. Gun-grabbing, Testosterone-Deficient, Emasculated Males Shame Month
5. Enviro-Fascist Shame Month
6. Islamo-terror Apologist Shame Month
7. Deep State Enabler Shame Month
8. Founding Fathers/America Hating Shame Month
9. Climate Fraud Shame Month
10. U.N. Kowtowing Globalists Shame Month
11. Enemies of Religious and Personal Liberty Shame Month
12. Anti-Family, Government-School-Nanny-State Shame Month

So offhand, those fill out my calendar for “Shame Months”. Any other suggestions?
