Trump clarifies Transgender remarks on Hannity
April 21, 2016

Posted on 04/21/2016 7:42:35 PM PDT by NKP_Vet

The link is not up yet, but a few minutes ago Trump was interviewed by Sean Hannity who asked him to clarify his remarks about the NC transgender law. Trump basically said NC is feeling the pinch of a boycott and that's too bad. Hannity asked him how he thought the issue should be settled. Trump said it was a local issue and the Federal courts should never get involved. That's all he said about it. Hannity didn't ask him did he personally think drag queens should be allowed in whatever bathroom they want to use. But I did hear a spokesman for Trump say today in the Matt Lauer interview he was referring to someone who has went to court and had their sex changed on legal documents, as in after they have a sex change. I would suspect Trump will clarify what he meant in the NBC interview in a statement. When the Hannity interview is available I'll post it.

” The Cruz supporters had their world rocked Tuesday night when Cruz got his clock cleaned. They are now going to grasp at straws by magnifying and distorting every utterance that comes out of Trump’s mouth to gin up controversy and sow FUD. It’s all they have left because Cruz is getting creamed in the primaries, when actual people are voting..”

And by now, with the media starting to call Trump “the presumptive nominee,” expect them to really start their “full court press” on idiotic statements.

“Except for every Christian voter that watched the Today show this morning.”

You mean all those Christian voters waiting in line to vote for Hillary?

“Why do we have even have separate men and women bathrooms?”

Not as funny as you might think. I used to do business with Ericsson in Sweden. All the bathrooms in their facilities are unisex. The area where you wash your hands is co-ed, but all the toilets are in completely enclosed stalls with locable doors on them. Not just partitions as we have here. No urnials either. Seemed like a rational solution to me.

"Should we be going into Hyperbola?"

Should you engage in obfuscation in order to deny where this issue is going?

"Gender fluid" people/advocates are calling for locker room/shower access not just stalls and politicians feel "oh so special" giving them everything while people like you shut their eyes, become proud of their blindness, then accuse others of hyperbole.

We have FM talk radio. Local guy 6-9, Beck 9-12, Rush 12-3, Hannity 3- I think 6 maybe 7, Dave Ramsey after that. He’s really putting everything he’s got into electing Cruz. He has worked himself into such a lathered frenzy, he sounds like he would be suicidal if Cruz doesn’t win. It’s very strange but now a lot of stuff I heard him say and predict over the past few years makes sense. It’s been setting up for a while but they were subtle in their presentation with him hinting about things.

The “issue” you allude to is Cultural Marxism. It took decades to get to this point. They did it by taking over the courts. education and removing Christianity from the Public forum.

This micro issue is in reality a call to have police look at people’s gonads before they can use a bathroom. Its not a fix, not even close. Now Trump is a man of his word, he does what he says hes going to do. He has promised to appoint conservative Judges, Bring education back to local control and protect Christianity.

So why die on this fake hill the Globalist is manipulation you on now when there is a real chance to heal our culture?

Sounds like the perfect answer for the anticipated audience.

"...police look at people’s gonads before they can use a bathroom."

Who is doing the hyperbole here? This issue is easy to diffuse with common sense laws. If some female patron sees a male wacko in the bathroom and feels threatened, then this can be a police response issue.

Trump can promise "conservative" judges, but that has been a perpetual assurance for decades among Republican candidates; yet we end up with intellectual rogues/terrible vetting.

A man of his word is highly debatable. The same with the other candidates by the way.

“now Men peeing with girls.”

He was talking about transgenders, not men. Transgenders are both sexes. It can be confusing.

There are not really very many transgenders, yet.

Yes hyperbole. Fact is this has been going on for decades and its not been a noticeable problem. Its not right, but in the big picture .03 percent is not a big deal. Parents do not let little ones go alone and usually stand guard outside to prevent pervs. Adult women should be aware and armed in the normal course of business. All the Cruzer’s are hyperbole about is already illegal activity.

Trump provided a list of his potential nominees already. Why don’t you look them up. He keeps his word. May not like some of what he says, but he is a honorable man.

Unless something changes, this is a nothing burger.

“There are not really very many transgenders, yet.”

Nor will there be. Its a Mental illness. They may be overrepresented in Media and Government but in total they are less than 3 percent in Total for the whole dysfunctional group.

So you have ALWAYS made clear and absolute statements without further clarification. Good for you Bucky! Most of us mere mortals have to explain what we mean when caught off guard on TV with so little time to be precise. Obviously you’ve never faced a liberal news reporter seeking a gotcha.

Where discretion was at the forefront. Now the "gender fluid" can flaunt their behavior behind the power of the law in their favor and continue to call for more acceptance/access to all types of facilities.

Too late. Damage done.

The only reason he has to say anything else is because so many opted to twist his words/intent into something that suited them. He just indicated that it is stupid for the government to keep enacting laws for every damn thing that comes along - sometimes it's better to do nothing than what keeps happening.

And the same laws for assault, harassment voyeurism etc still exist like they did before. Its Deck chairs on the titanic. Which is why outside the GOPe/Cruz camp its not gaining traction. Not that people are OK with the mentally ill mind you, but its not on the radar with our countries survival at stake.

Now Trump is a man of his word, he does what he says
Given how many times he's lied during this campaign, that's objectively and demonstrably false.

Oh, but I'm sure after lying to us to get the job, he'll totally keep all his promises he made to us. Yeah, that makes total sense.

Barnum was right.
