Log Cabin Republicans: We’re In Contact With Trump Transition Team, Will Protect LGBT Rights

In a fundraising email to supporters Thursday night, Log Cabin Republicans President Gregory T. Angelo (above) claimed his group — and only his group — can save the LGBT community from President-elect Donald Trump.

Trump has pledged to repeal all of President Barack Obama’s executive orders, including those protecting LGBT people. He’s vowed to appoint right-wing Supreme Court justices who could at least partially overturn marriage equality and said he’d sign the horrific anti-LGBT “First Amendment Defense Act.”

Both Trump’s transition team and his leaked list of potential cabinet appointees are packed with anti-LGBT extremists in the mold of Vice President-elect Mike Pence. Hate groups including the National Organization for Marriage have already rolled out their agendas for a Trump presidency, and LGBT advocates both in the US and abroad are justifiably terrified. But according to Angelo, everything is under control.

What executive order did Obama sign for homosexuals? I tried to look it up, and the only thing I could find was the one about not hiring companies that weren’t pro-homosexual.

Don't underestimate the tentacled power of "non-discrimination" mandates. They reach into EVERY relationship with the federal government. Every person who does business with a federal agency must have, as their own de facto policy, the same "non-discrimination" practices established in their own businesses, wherever they are. That's 10's of thousands of businesses who are conservative-run.

So, a business that interacts as a contractor with the fed can't even relate to other NON-governmental customers the same anymore, at the risk of losing the government business.

This would be the LCR that declined to endorse Trump?
