Donald Trump 'considering reversing LGBT rights reforms': Tuesday morning briefing
The London Telegraph ^ | January 31, 2017 | Barney Henderson, New York and David Lawler, Washington

Gay rights groups are bracing for a possible executive order from Donald Trump concerning the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people.

The rumoured order could affect adoption agencies that receive government funding, among other issues, according to initial reports.

JoDee Winterhof, senior vice president of the Human Rights Campaign, called the rumours about a forthcoming order "deeply troubling".

"As the President and his team plan their next steps, we want to make one thing clear: we won't give one inch when it comes to defending equality, whether it is a full-on frontal assault or an attack under the guise of religion," she said....

When does a child consent to being brought into a same sex relationship household and raised in an alternative lifestyle as an accessory?

True.
If he follows through on that he’ll certainly perk up my attention. I didn’t think anyone had that kind of courage.

Leftists going nuts on Twitter over this. They say the protest of this will make the rest seem small by comparison!

It's the Telegraph...they're just stirring the pot; I believe.

OTOH, IF President Trump does this, I'll be one EXTREMELY happy poster!

Better increase his SS Detail by a factor of 10 or 100 if this actually happens.

Trump truly is the worlds greatest troll.

Wonder if he can be charged with involuntary homicide when liberals start jumping off cliffs?

No more gay wedding cakes backed at government gunpoint? On the other hand, this will piss off the Democrats’ largest single (2%) bloc of hardcore supporters, so Trump had better be careful. :)

I won’t believe anything like this until I actually see it. I suspect this is fear mongering.

However, I do not believe that gay people should be allowed to adopt children at all.

A child needs a mother and a father, and the mother needs to be an actual female, and the farther needs to be an actual male, and I will never believe anything other than that.

I thinking it’s being pushed to get some reactions out of the homosexual community. Trump has long spoken in favor of SSM

it should be a child’s right to have a mom and a dad when the state is forced to intervene in how a child is raised. yes there are gay parents but the state should not be seeking to put a child into those circumstances it is not a mater of gay rights but a child’s right to both a Mom and a dad.

I doubt this. He knows better than to do this before he has an AG in place.

If he is actually going to do this, it’s WAY too early. So many other important matters to attend to without causing more distraction.

Yeah. Folsom Street’s values are America’s values, doncha know. If we don’t surrender our children now, we’re depriving them of their rights.

This is likely a ploy by the Human Rights Campaign to solicit some contributions.

The only executive orders he could issue are one’s reversing the power grab and the subsequent implementation of imagined LGBQTSIO*&^ rights by federal agencies under Obama. An example would be tying gender disorder into Title IX.
