That's it for me.
Well Freerepublic, you sure can pick em.
I agree with Donald and I am 100% consistent. I stated this within the last week.
I AM OK WITH PATIENTS WHO HAVE GENDER DYSPHORIA USING THE BATHROOM OF THE GENDER THEY ARE TRYING TO BE IN ORDER TO TRY AND FEEL NORMAL.
Please have kindness toward these people. Their brain / body dysfunction is real, as is schizophrenia or bipolar. Imagine the hell if you feel exactly like a woman but your body is that of a man. It is not their fault.
They go to get help from medical professionals, and then are PUSHED into trying life as the opposite gender. It’s the ONLY treatment being offered for these poor people. It is not a good treatment because success (feeling good about yourself) has only a 50-50 chance. Many go back to their original gender, or just never feel right. What a horrible disorder, and I am glad I don’t have it.
These people with this disorder will NOT be molesting our daughters or grandmothers. They just need to pee.
WHAT WE MUST FIGHT ARE LAWS ALLOWING ANY MAN INTO THE WOMANS RESTROOM. THAT WILL PUT 100% OF OUR DAUGHTERS AND GRANDMOTHERS INTO DANGER. There are less than .01% of the population with gender dysphoria, and to put our women into dire straits when they are at their most vulnerable in the toilets, is insanity.
I disagree with him 100%.
That said... what’s he going to do? If he answers the question the other way, he’s throwing a softball to the media and allowing them to pummel him non-stop 24/7, painting him as a bigot. This way, he might piss off some of his people on a relatively inconsequential issue but pull the plug on another media attempt to destroy him. I think the big picture matters more, at this point.
LOL
Irrelevant and all of you know it.
Nothing changes.
It’s Trump with a chance, or Hillary as Prez if anybody else is the nominee, I’ll take my chances with Trump.
It’s not a good situation, but there’s no real answer to it except having a family bathroom like at most airports.
First of all, as a conservative male heterosexual, I’ve used women’s bathrooms in the past 70 years; for instance when the men’s room was out of order and I had to go bad enough...
Secondly, If a transgender male is indistinguishable from a female, it would be disruptive (maybe more so) for him to use the men’s room. It would be least disruptive to use the ladies room I would think.
Thirdly, When I traveled (without my spouse) with my kids when they were young (and that was 35 or 40 years ago). I never let either my son or my daughter go into a public bathroom alone. My daughter would have to use the men’s room or I would have to take her in the ladies room. So this is not a new issue that families have to deal with... It just requires common sense, not laws.
So in that respect, Trump is right. Leave things the way they were. It has always been an issue and has never been a problem. we don’t need new laws.
Wow...
Great guy the Trumpbots are supporting there...
I will refuse to shop/spend any of money at any place that does not have gender-specific restrooms. I am hoping that companies start building single-stall restrooms now. It will cost them a lot of money, but that’s nothing compared to what they will lose with this “let’s share” idea.
It amazes me that people can overlook this type of stuff from Trump and say they will vote for him specifically because of the border fence.
He may have done this because he thinks he needs to get the left of center crowd, but he is making the assumption that he will keep the rest of his supporters. There are a lot of Christians who had been holding their noses and planning to vote for him because of his competition in the GOP, but this is the kind of stuff they will finally cause us to desire a contested convention.
Trump is not a conservative.
Good. The GOPe keeps throwing up smokescreen nonsense to divert the plebes’ attention from the systematic exportation of American jobs and prosperity. Donald don’t play that.
That's it for me.
I for one will not allow Hillary to win just because of this stupid issue. And yes, I feel strongly about the issue, but let's face it this is not about bathroom. It is about the invalid gender identity issue pushed by the left.
New York values
I’m a Trump supporter but this I don’t agree with. That said, every politician one supports stands for at least some things that you cannot support.
Just towing the democrat party platform like he has his adult life.
Ugh.
Donald is smart to avoid this obvious trap.
Donald and his NY Values.
My friend, may I engage you in conversation?
I don’t like this comment of Trump’s, but it was a massive gotcha question, nothing more. I never expected Mr. Trump to be that good on sex issues in the first place, but with the way the SC is going, he’s not going to have much of an effect on them anyways.
Ultimately, this is a weapon that the enemy is trying to use against us. There WAS no right answer to that question.
This is bad.
Aha, The Donald is starting his self-described transformation into a “more Presidential” version of himself...
Actually, this is an example of his Liberal NY values beginning to shine through...
Trump supporters will be in for a rude awakening if he becomes POTUS...
Ugh! Super disappointing.
