The trouble is - that bell has rung. All these little perverts are going to get married between now and the next election. A president can’t go in and now tell them they aren’t married - the feds are even giving them spousal benefits. I don’t know how this issue can be solved by Trump or anyone else. Maybe it can be handled at the state level. Look how long abortion has been legal - since 1973 and just now is becoming an issue with the PP videos being released. Like most - we were sickened that the SC ruled the way they did, but, I saw it coming, as I think most did. They should have pushed it back to the states to decide. Some already had gay marriage legal - but not all.
Just saying, I agree with you, "sickened that the SC ruled the way they did, but, I saw it coming." This could have been dealt with after the first appeal in a federal court. Rather than nip it in the bud, SCOTUS allowed the courts that it oversees to promulgate law holding that homosexual marriage is a constitutional right. If SCOTUS thought that was in error, it could have corrected the error when given the opportunity.
The president's view on the subject is irrelevant, except to the extent one sees his morality as affecting his judgment in enforcing federal law and overseeing foreign relations.
Trump is honest about this and he is right
How can anyone think Ted Cruz or Ben Carson will change this USSC decision ??
Now, can a president have an impact on the religious freedom of churches schools and businesses to not be compelled to participate in celebrations of state sanctified sodomy?
Only someone who is not intimidated by PC
Now who would that be
Unbelievable! What they pulled off is a revolution. Speechless!
And yet - I seem to remember Trump supporters and others castigating Kasich as a GOPe lackey for saying basically the same thing during the debate.
It's currently a cultural thing. The culture has shifted to the point where it's accepted, or at least we don't have a big enough percentage of people willing to declare it unacceptable. So the gays win on this, for now.
The big cultural/legal issue moving forward may be the concept of "public accommodation". As long as we have the concept of "public accommodation", where anybody doing business has to accept as customers anybody who comes to them, then we will have Christians being driven out of business over their refusal to associate with immorality. The only solution is to abolish the legal concept of "public accommodation", and return to business owners the right to deal with, and NOT deal with, whomever they choose, for whatever reasons they choose.

Didn't you people learn ANYTHING from the smoke of SODOM?

Did he say anything about religious freedom and the rights of those who object in conscience to unnatural “marriage”? Sorry, this issue is fundamental for me in any candidate.
The problem is the public support for same-sex marriage is too high to ever get an amendment passed at this time. It could’ve easily been done 15 years ago. I wish someone would explain to me why conservatives never tried.
We probably do have enough support now to get an anti-abortion amendment, an amendment to end birthright citizenship and a balanced budget amendment passed. I wish someone would explain to me why conservatives aren’t trying.

The trouble is that Trumpets like you are willing to accept any kind of insanity to get your liberal Democrat.
If this isn’t a killer for you, it must be a winner for you.

I’m going to save this thread so I can remind some folks how they were willing to throw away their conservatism-—hell, their sense of what they know is right-—in order to fangirl over some celebutard.
It’s shameful.
