Can We Stop Freaking Out Over Trump's Bathroom Comments?
EEE | 21 APRIL 2016 | EEE

Posted on 04/21/2016 3:42:46 PM PDT by Extremely Extreme Extremist

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.

It is a headline vs what was actually said situation. I listened to what Trump said it isn’t the end of the world.

According to Reuters, it’s within the margin of error—43% against, 40% for, rest undecided.

Don’t forget the Rush Limbaugh show. Rush has been a regular Cruzlim Ayatollah lately.

Exactly and with these laws come enforcement issues.

If Cruz had made such a statement, there would be postings about it for weeks.

With Trump the posts are variations of “Nothing to see here, folks, just move along.”

My dad owned a gas station when I was little. When I visited him, I most always used the Men’s room. Especially in the winter. It was more smelly, but it was inside and it was warm. I freezed my buns off in the Ladies room, which was accessed from outside with a key.

Agree with your post. On to more serious matters. Need to forgo the “potty talk.” ;)

Did he not welcome Bruce Jenner to the girls restroom?

Yes, to his private Trump Towers or residence. Is he advocating that he/she should be allowed to go into any restroom him/her wants?

This is not a manufactured issue — it is a real problem. Such a problem that N. Carolina had to pass a law to prohibit access to bathrooms by sex. Washington State’s human rights commission passed a regulation on 12/26/15 that prohibits limitations on bathroom and LOCKER ROOM/SHOWERS access based on birth sex. Obama is using Title IX and is threatening to withhold funds from school districts that discriminate against LBGT with regards to access to bathrooms and LOCKER ROOMS/SHOWERS in schools.

Before Trump offered his liberal position earlier today, conservatives were in unison in their opposition to the gay /trans agenda on this issue. Now that Trump has given a liberal response it is a non issue or not important. People around here are just as bad as Trump when it comes to jettisoning there principles.

I just pee out back while I’m rooting through the dumpsters. No need to get all wee-weed up about this stuff.

could have gotten some independents if he said “if you havae a man’s part, use a mans bathroom.

Kinda his point. NC's "strong" law wouldn't allow for that. Cher's kid with a penis would have to use the ladies room.

“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.”

My goodness...you should write a book and I am not kidding.

Ok, how about we talk about his raising taxes on the wealthy issue?

Or his affirmation of Federal Land control?

Or his love of the Kelo decision?

Or how about we talk about him changing the decades old GOP platform affirming the right to life from conception to allow a bunch of exceptions?

How about we just recognize that Donald LGBTrump is a closet liberal and deal with it?

I agree. The whole idea is to bait Trump into opposing wide open bathrooms, and then spend a week or two publicly decrying him. Trump decided to sit this one out. For once I would like to hear Hillary baited into a partial birth abortion controversy, or something similar, but we can’t even get the media to ask her about the e-mails.

Quite honestly, I HAVE forgotten the Rush Limbaugh show.

What a disaster he's made of himself this past two months.

Ted Cruz is extreme to want a law to make it illegal for a 12 year old gang rape victim to get an abortion after being attacked.. and so is everybody else who agrees with that.

only the Cruzer losers are freaking out, because their candidate is losing, and they’re grasping at straws.
