Yes, it was too off the cuff and a dumb thing for Trump to say.

My God the amount of hysterical people who want to hold this up against the other monumental issues our country is facing, well it’s astounding.

I can protect my children in the rest room. And btw, little boys need to be accompanied in the rest room as well as little girls.

If you are a parent/friend/aunt/uncle/grandparent who is with a child who needs to use the public restroom,,go with them! who doesn’t do that now? There are pervs all around. Why aren’t people already protecting their children?

This entire topic is just absurd!

Yep, it would have been too easy to say that he supports private facilities for everyone. Or event o say that he’d get back on that one, that he’s still studying it.

In my circles it will hurt him badly.

Agreed. A much more real problem is not the rare confused gender type deciding where to poop. Its same sex pervs who already troll bathrooms. And the goverment and more laws don’t stop that, people using precaution does.

Conservatives suddenly want big gov to check peckers for a false sense of security.

He will most certainly have EARNED the nomination...

If you refuse to support the nominee when he becomes it, that is your business, but I’ll be voting for Cruz.

I've always known there would be some things we would't like about Trump, that supporting him would bite us in the rear end from time to time.

I must admit, I'm shocked at this one. Of all things to put down his PC sword for. Sheesh.

I hope he walks this back, it's just such an unforced error on his part.

I agree. Absolutely an unforced error.

He cares of course, the issue is the law as it exists today. There are already crimes for voyeurism assault rape etc, but none to protect you as a business owner from the GayStapo.

BTW, I actually believed what I wrote yesterday. I think Trump pretty well has this sewn up.

If he meant post surgery transsexuals, I would agree they should use plumbing appropriate... Otherwise it is odd.

‘Our Presidents can’t torch planned parenthood sites. ‘

They sure can close down abortion sites.

Deny funding for harvesting of body parts.

Have the AG prosecute broken federal statutes on the same.

Insist on hospital admission standards. Tax the facilities for inspectors to enforce cleanliness standards.

Require sonograms be bought and used. These laws in the states have had a significant life saving affect.

You believe the polls? Are you blind? Did not see the real world election results (where voters were allowed to vote) showing the demographics? Sorry Fake polls will not Get the Canadian lawyer the nomination for Goldman Sachs. And no way in hell is he winning the general.

Me too.

I think it's done.

I've been trying to do the math for some of the Cruz supporters, he has no way to the nomination and it's time for him to get out.

Unfortunately, the unforced error won't help him much.

You’re right.

It was a DUMB position for Trump to take. He needs to be smarter than this.

Giving into them is not condoning their blackmail tactics?

I listened and for some reason it won't load further once it gets to 17:36. So far the comment isn't what I'm reading, but it won't play the rest.

Dang. I'd love to hear the full discussion. How far does it go from 17:36?

Making an issue of an non issue that will cost the GOP negative press is stupidity.

You have a greater chance of being killed by an illegal alien than seeing a trans person in a public restroom. You have a greater chance your job is outsourced than seeing a trans person in a bathroom. I live in NYC - in Manhattan no less - and I have never seen one in a public bathroom.

Instead of being freaked out over illegals the GOPe distracts the base into being freaked out by almost by a small group of people who barely register on the problems scale.
