Trump is woefully ill prepared to lead the country but is he really anti gay/hateful towards gays as another resident poster here would lead you to believe ?
rump has never hidden his support for gay civil rights laws. In 2000, he declared that he supported gay anti-discrimination laws and the repeal of dont ask, dont tell. He also advocated for a very strong domestic-partnership law that guarantees gay people the same legal protections and rights as married people. His book, released that same year, wistfully described his dream of an America unencumbered by discrimination against people based on sexual orientation.
His view on marriage equality ....
He has insisted that the Supreme Courts marriage equality ruling is the law of the landyou have to go with it, he advisedand groused that anybody thats making that an issue is doing it for political reasons.
and so on ....
interesting read which is different from "let's vote for him"
let's at least try to speak to what is vs. what we imagine to be
