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.
Amen.
This whole thing is stupid. There are more important things to worry about. I grew up in a gay town (Palm Springs) and in the gay culture because I had a gay father. I oppose homosexuality, but at the same time, I grew up with Trannies and them in the bathroom was never an issue it hasn’t been until a couple of months ago. Most went to the mens room, some went to the women’s no one cared. The libs have seen this as a weak spot to make us look like bigots and evil Christians and are driving a wedge.
There are bigger fish to fry. And I was never allowed in the bathroom unaccompanied.
NO one is freaking out, just showing trump showing his true colors. Dont forget about his comments on abortion and raising taxes on the rich, all in one day. The mask is coming off.
Good post, I agree completely
too bad though. It was a winning issue. Only 26 percent support it. and they’re all dems i’m sure.
could have gotten some independents if he said “if you havae a man’s part, use a mans bathroom.
Then I listened to the interview.
It was tiniest of gaffes, not worthy of attention, and what was reported was never true.
The GOPe/Cruz conglomerates are just as hard at work as Media Matters were.......they should be ashamed of themselves.
Did he not welcome Bruce Jenner to the girls restroom?
"Potty rights" ain't even on my radar. Seriously.
Trump says leave it the way it is, ie, men use the men’s room women use the women’s room. No biggie.
I dunno- Can we stop freaking out about a national enquirer disgusting RUMOR about Ted Cruz?
Thumbs Up !!
They can’t stop themselves. It doesn’t matter what he actually said. Trump Derangement Syndrome is it full force!
Yes, they are. Just how many threads have been posted about this? There are too many more important things to be talking about.
TOILET POLICE !
Just as I figured : )
He said he was going to fix the carry over interest loop hole, something hedge fund managers won’t like, this affects the uber rich, not the 50K a year rich that Bernie and the rest of the liberal hate
As for abortion, the three exceptions are just that exceptions. I don’t know how I can force a woman to have a child she did not consent to creating. She was a victim and now the rapist forced her be a mother and he is now the biological father. I understand the 100% anti-abortion stance, but I also see the rape exception as well.
People are though. It's well known that Trump isn't as pure as the driven conservative snow. We know that.
I'm simply telling people to focus on the big picture. We got serious, structural problems with this country that will make the bathroom debate look like arguing over the menu choices on the Titanic.
[[Yes, they are. Just how many threads have been posted about this?]]
Not nearly as many as were posted about a rumor about Ted Cruz in the slime magazine national enquirer- Hell- peopel are still posting about it even though no legitimate news organization will touch the issue-
NO one is freaking out, just showing trump showing his true colors. Dont forget about his comments on abortion and raising taxes on the rich, all in one day. The mask is coming off.
LOL. Cruz showed his “true colors” strutting about in his holier than thou pose while stuffing his pockets full of homo activist donor money. And you CRuzies care not one bit about the hypocrisy and lack of principle of that.
Cruz and his parrots don’t care one bit about North Carolina. Barely said a word about it until Trump did today. This is just another political hammer to hit Trump with. Transparent. This inauthenticity is exactly why Cruz is losing.
Islam, illegal immigration, and Federal and Supreme Court justices are my main requirements for the next POTUS. All the other stuff is just a distraction. I believe that addressing the former will take care of the latter..
