Very smart of Trump, IMHO, to take the focus away from social issues and concentrate on economics, law and order, and national security. That's where the votes are.

Some FReepers will disagree, and I respect them, but I think Trump knows whatissues voters care about this year.

It was one of the better speeches at the RNC.

I don’t understand this stupid transgendered bathroom bill anyway. If a person is fully transgendered, isn’t it impossible to tell? If everybody just kept their mouths shut nobody would know or care. After Obama pushed the bathroom thing it just opened the women’s restroom and other women only places to perverts because they can claim to be transgendered whether they are or not. I think they (transgendered) are mentally ill or something but if you can’t tell and they have women parts, I don’t really care. But, like I said, I’m not that educated on all the different perversions out there. Living in the Bible belt of the rural South has sheltered me too much I guess.

I don’t think so. He has funded seasteading proposals and other anti-state initiatives. This is not the profile of a PC globalist billionaire a la Gates, Soros, or Zuckerberg.

Because its not really about rights or equal access. It’s about acceptance.

The tech billionaire declared to the Republican National Convention that he is "proud to be gay,"

I pity him.

I’m up on All the perversions, unfortunately, having gone to NYC nightclubs many a time in my day. AND knowing TG and gays and lesbians in offices.

Most TG go to TG bars and clubs so there’s no issue there.

Mixed clubs, you’re right. You’re wearing a skirt, your face looks like a man’s, but nobody gives a ####.

TG and TS dont go to the neighborhood bars and most clubs.

So there was no issue till obummer opened his mouth.

BTW, Limelight was a SICK mix of freaks. Closed down after that kid was murdered and dismemebered.

Utter nonsense. Trump RIGHTFULLY focused on protecting the homosexual community from Islamic terrorists—something that is indeed CULTURAL and not “economic”. Such protection of homosexuals is 100% in accordance with social conservatives.

For Thiel to focus on economics is good for him, since that is the focus of his life. He is a business man. I agree that he should address those issues.

Trump in his speech also spoke about protecting religious liberties.

‘...and encouraged Republicans to let transgender people use whichever bathroom they want to use. “This is a distraction from our real problems. Who cares?”

The problem comes when government forces private businesses to let men into their women’s private facilities. Yeah lets not fight about that, NC was so crazy in giving the choice back to private business owners as to who can use their dumb bathrooms, such a distraction. OK then.

Why would a ‘man’ be proud that he takes it up the ass? I do agree with Trump, though, that economic concerns are where the votes are.

Another perverted fascist heard from. He’s telling the GOP not to fight the culture war because he wants all of us to surrender to his disguting, unhealthy lifestyle choices. No, pervert, I don’t think so.

Blame it on my reverence for God, or anything else you care to. But the Word, including the NT.....or even ESPECIALLY the NT, is clear that God hates homosexuality. He does NOT hate homos, per se. He will forgive them the instant they repent and change; the same as he’ll forgive a kleptomaniac who repents and stops it. He’ll forgive any old garden variety sinner, like ME, who repents and surrenders to Him.

But from what I read in the Word, I would not want to pass on into eternity, to meet Him, while in a state of blatant, in-His Face, sexual rebellion.

FWIW.

I think you don’t understand the real purposes of all of this: to totally undermine our moral underpinnings and to allow the perverts access to our children.
