Planned political comment, not off the cuff, campaigning in North E. and CA, again proves he owns the media, fully knows the courts will decide the issue, just like gay marriage, calm down.
It’s still is the Don or Hillary.
No one is even touching the Planned Parenthood butchery anymore.
Target is Minneapolis based and the Christmas boycott did have an impact on them. Boycotting privately and closing accounts is fine but unless the women, not men, are out publically protesting in front of stores getting media attention it will not have a substantial impact.
Men, are okay being in attendance but it has to be a women’s movement in protection of themselves and children. Much of the success at the state level on abortion has been the results of women telling there stories and discussing the issue in terms that relate to other women.
Ya know, all kidding aside. I really really wanted Trump to be genuine, a conservative, the guy to rally patriotism and nationalism back to America.
I'm a Cruz supporter, but always ok with Trump being the nominee. I would and will support him if it turns out that way. Consider the alternative...right?
That said, initially hearing Trump I thought...yea! Finally someone standing up for Americans.
As time went on, I thought....uh, what's up with all the sophomoric insults. What's up with all the soundbites and lack of substance.
Now, the more he tawks....it's like, uh oh! I can see liberalism bleeding out. Progressive tax plan, transgendered men in woman's bathrooms.
By the way, once the LBGTQ lobby gains bathroom access mandated by law, they will go after locker rooms, showers.
Is Donald Trump thinking this through or was his response more short shallow soundbites designed to garner moderates/liberals?
And, this is the way to handle it.
We forget that the majority is on our side. We don’t need to have lawmakers pass a law or a judge to make one up out of thin air. We just need to vote with our pocketbooks.
Target is already feeling the heat.’
Restaurants in Charlotte will lose business as people stop dining within the city limits. Business may virtue-signal approval of the law, but they will think twice about locating within the Charlotte city limits. Eventually, Charlotte will quietly rescind the law.
In this instance, he is taking a libertarian position: the government should stay out of it.
And since the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called LGBT rights, state powers to regulate public-access bathrooms are constitutionally unchecked concerning this issue.
Problem is majority has these days no right to call one thing normal over another.
Those blurred lines in court rulings has caused all things being considered equal.
Until there are crimes in bathroom use I doubt there can be a defence in court to the insanity.
“He is wrong on this gotcha question which is not surprise. What can he do to change it?”
Nothing. The LBGTs are a federally protected class which pretty much eliminates any states rights arguments. Community his and hers bathrooms are an antiquated concept and have long been a magnet for all sorts of illicit activity.
Public bathrooms will have to be remodeled to single occupancy unisex water closets. It’s the only answer.
Agreed.
Don’t worry, in about an hour Donald’s staff will come out and explain away his words, saying “What he meant was.....” and then give some drivel on talking back what Trump said.
Kind of like they did with the whole punishing women/abortion thing.
The man has no core values or beliefs. He says whatever comes to his head, that he thinks people want to hear. His whole SOP, is saying whatever will make the crowd cheer and get aroused, the most. Doesn’t matter what he wants or believes....
And then it’s moments like these, where he’s asked off the cuff questions, that he never has truly given thought to, that he just says whatever first comes to his mind. THAT is when we really see what this man is about. He’s a liberal. He speaks in liberal terms. He holds liberal opinions and liberal view points.
Anyone with a working brain, and seeing eyes, can clearly see this. It’s just sad, so many have brains and eyes that aren’t working...
I don’t know how much it would cost but there are already security cameras all over stores and I believe that businesses already have cameras that capture the image of people going into and out of the restroom areas. But I think that Trump is wrong on this one.
But it did take attention away from the voterless Colorado election and the Cruz attempted hijacking of the Phyllis Schlafy Eagle Forum. Cruz may not be a nice guy but he is the perfect conservative.
If a goofy man comes in the bathroom with my wife and daughter he may find himself at the end of a gun barrel being escorted out while my daughter calls the police.
How damned stupid and decadent have we become as a country in 2016 when we can’t even use the bathroom anymore without political correctness and perversion.
Does America really need to survive at this point in the world? I have children and I weep for their future. As a country are we to the point where we really ain’t worth killing.
I can’t believe intelligent people, presumedly, are refusing to see the ramifications of this and are pretending that it’s no big deal. It’s exactly what you said, facilitating perverts. And they don’t have to be trannies to use the same bathroom as women, they can just “identify as a woman”, and I doubt of some wanna-be pervert claims to be a woman, any of the SJW-supporting businesses will take it upon themselves to require official proof. So, free-for-all for the perverts.
presumedly=presumably
And Cruz is exploiting the low hanging fruit. Don’t look while he is beating up on 91 year old Phyllis Schlafly and stealing the people of Colorado’s right to vote. Make a lot of noise, wave your arms, jump up and down.
Ditto to every word. I do believe that the US has already passed the Rubicon. I don’t know if you’re a believer in Bible prophecy-I am, and await with interest our prophesied future.
It’s not a slide, it’s a snapback to his roots. How this guy got to be a billionaire is a testament to a long gone America.
