    It has been under reported by MSM, but Donald Trump has always supported the LGBT community.  Some of Trump's greatest online supporters are members of the LGBT, and are activist.  At one of his yuge rallies, Trump was given a rainbow flag by some of his supporters at the rally.  That was a moment that warmed my heart as I saw how happy and honored Trump was to receive the flag for gay equality and waved it for everyone to see.

      Trump was raised in a borough of NY and lived all his life in NYC, so is used to people being who they are. I don't think he will concentrate too much on social issues, I think the economy and infrastructure will be his first tasks. It is hard to predict anything lately, though!

        Yes, Trump was born in Queens, he has also lived in Palm Beach and Manhattan in the Trump Tower. 

        Many social issues can be resolved rather easily by the truth.  Say, the shield law that protects mainstream media is dropped and they can't legally lie to the public / world anymore.  I think some lawsuits could even be allowed. 

        The infrastructure is important for families, communities, and every single business.  That is how we will thrive again. 

        Trump will have to deal with China soon, I pray for a fair outcome.  The Chinese people are wonderful, but the ruling Communist government is corrupt.

          I'm still shocked at the outcome of the election. All the polls were way off. I was a Hillary supporter and am a left leaning progressive.

          Trump may have said anything to get elected, we will have to see what he actually does. The fact he is choosing Rudy Guiliani for his cabinet is bad; it;s obvious Rudy is in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's. Chris Christie has ruined New Jersey. And Newt Gingrich was old news in the 1980s. A sad day for America, friends have been crying and calling me all day.

            Jean, I have been emphatic that the polls were rigged to favor Hillary.  Many people sat down with their pop and popcorn to watch the election results expecting Hillary to win because of weighted scales.  People are hurt and angry because of the deceptive media pollsters who were trying to sway the election, and because they were taken in by the deception.

            Accurate scientific political models predicted Trump to win. 

            I hope this helps more people to realize that they can't trust the corporate media drama and their bias narratives.  Evidently, most Americans are aware because they weren't swayed by fake polls, and voted their hearts.

            Its nearly impossible to stop a movement. Trump's win is a phenomena, and its inexplicable to those who do not believe God's will was done in this election.  There is no other explanation I can offer.   

            We the people.
            One nation under God. 
            In God we trust.

                "In God we trust?"

                Excellent examples of the tyranny of the majority, when those words were added in the 50's.  Other examples might include prohibition, Sunday blue laws, anti-gay legislation and even the end of slavery (sometimes the majority really is right, rather than just controlling).

              I'm not protesting in the streets. I believe in the peaceful transfer of power. While I was not a Trump supporter, I do believe he has strengths to offer, especially in renegotiating all the terrible trade deals, and dealing with our crumbling infrastructure.

              People will say anything to win an election, I learned that years ago while serving at the lowly county level. It's not an indication of how they will behave in office. Trump deserves a fair chance, and maybe can break this gridlock.

              I also had concerns about Hillary's health, colorfulone. I can't put my finger on it, but kept getting a feeling that if she won, she would die in office. I pray she takes care of herself, and our country can get together again. We've been divided for way too long.

              Ahorseback,

              It is very obvious that the LEFT is in turmoil.  There are massive protests, even riots because of Trump's win.  WHAT are they fearful of.   Trump is going to improve American in ways that Obama didn't, couldn't, & won't.  America became much worse under Obama.   ENOUGH I say.  At least Trump will be a breath of FRESH air.   Trump is unconventional, I like UNCONVENTIONAL people.  Trump will fix America in a way that Clinton & many of the Leftist Democrats won't.  While I am a Liberal, I AM NOT A LEFTIST!!!!! The protesters are very radical.  Many are calling for the IMPEACHMENT of Donald Trump.  TOTALLY BEYOND the pale, if you ask me.

        Exactly, Jean.  I believe that at this juncture, we need a President who will fix the economy.   Let's put a temporary freeze on the sociopolitical stuff.   Although I am a Liberal Democrat, I am happy w/Trump's win.  I feel that he will fix the economy for the better.

          Hi Grace,
          I took it hard at first, really wanted to see the first woman POTUS in the U.S. But she just wasn't popular enough. Trump has potential.

          More young people have to start getting involved in the political process, instead of blocking traffic and staging peaceful protests after the fact. I know, I was young once, and they are upset. But we all have to grow up. They don't have to lose their idealism, but they do have to channel it in the right way.

        Look closely at the photo of Trump holding the rainbow flag.  It was given to him by a local political LGBT group, not a LGBTQ group.  Not every gay, lesbian, transsexual, or bisexual wants to be identified with queers.   Its their right.  Right?

          Jean Bakulaposted 7 years agoin reply to this

          Colorful one,
          You are right about the LGBTQ letters. The Q used to mean "questioning." It's now "queer" again. Older gays who fought and rioted on Stonewall Street abhor the word Queer, and denounce it, because they have terrible scars and memories from being called Queer. But it's becoming popular in the Millennial age group to bring "Queer" back. It's an umbrella term for everyone, instead of the increasing alphabet soup of letters and labels. Younger people don't feel insulted by queer.

          It know this is weird, but during the years I practiced Astrology, much of my clientele was gay or from the LGBTQ community. I am open minded and will read for anyone, but have always been straight. So I am usually up on these issues. Anyway, I don't think Trump cares much about social issues, I believe he will concentrate on more serious issues that affect our country.

            Some put an 'I' in the LGBTIQ. 
            What I am most concerned about are the ones who identify as cats or dogs, etc.  There are about 250 different identity groups on Facebook, and it gets weird.  (Face palm) 

            I have noticed that you are open minded, Jean.  BTW, I am straight too, and I have always been treated respectfully by LGBTIQs.  Its interesting to stay up on their issues a little bit anyway.

            Trump is a public figure and the social issues are very important to him. We've got problems on the streets with paid protesters and rioters. Domestic terrorists, illegal aliens...

            I truly hope you are right that he "will concentrate on more serious issues that affect our country" along side his chief strategist and senior counselor, Steve Bannon.

              colorfulone,
              For a group of young people who insist they hate labels, they sure have a lot of them. But I, too, am concerned. I pray Trump will deal with other issues rather than social ones. He has been awful to women, disabled people, dream students are crying and afraid of deportation, the list is long. I know Hillary was so disliked many less D's came out to vote. In my local newspaper this morning, I read about R's who didn't vote in 40 years who came out to vote for Trump.

              The group I see him surrounding himself with now is scary to me. But we do need change, no matter how we look at it. The protesters are in their first weekend, so many only had time to get out now. They are within their rights if they stay peaceful, and Trump already tweeted he wanted to limit rights on media and freedom of peaceful protests. That would require an amendment to the Constitution though, so cooler minds would prevail. These people out blocking streets aren't helping anything. Really, he should leave his 5th Ave.residence and go to another one, he owns other properties and I heard 100 extra NY cops are out there along with the Secret Service. People are trying to Christmas shop.

              It is a really difficult time, and hard to predict how he will proceed once his Presidency begins. Do you think Obama should make a public statement to try to smooth things out with the protesters? He's still the President and could speak with Donald before he speaks so they can see if somehow they can come up with a positive statement they can both get behind. We are truly stronger together.

      lol you know the bar has been set really low when not hating gay people is considered an achievement. Trump has probably never strangled a puppy either, but that's not something to brag about is it. I mean, what else would you list as Trump achievements:

      Has never committed a bank robbery*.
      Has never pushed someone under a speeding train*.
      Does not torture cats*.

          Not sure. He may have owned a bank though. As they say: give a man a gun and he'll rob a bank. Give a man a bank and he'll rob the world.  Not sure about the cats either. I have a sneaking suspicion he admires cats (he also reminds me a little of a pampered house cat). Can any Trump supporters confirm or deny whether Donald likes cats? It's very important that we know.

                  I watched your video. She stated the facts that under the law, an unborn child has no constitutional rights. She also said that she favors a woman's right to choose, including in situations where the life of the mother is at stake. She did not say you can kill a baby the day of its delivery just hours before it is born. You intentionally and honestly misrepresented her position.

                    Trump will appoint Constitutional justices.

              In fact I wonder if Trump had a pet growing up? Or maybe a favorite toy that he was taken away from, like the sled in Citizen Kane. Might be onto something here.

      Yes, I did think that was the case.  There has been a lot of hype and misinformation throughout this campaign cycle and I am so glad that many Americans saw right through it.  Many Americans did not, and continue to not see what they don't want to see.  I appreciate any efforts by anyone to get out the truth about all kinds of topics. 

      I genuinely don't understand what we as a nation have to gain by just believing what we want to believe over what seems to make more sense or is actually true. There is actually a lot of hurt that comes from this kind of chosen behavior.

              You remember me saying I cant get a read on this election because it is going to be a selection. I said selection a few times and think Hillary is more likely to win . She did win people vote and Trump was selected for President.

              Then I mention Alex Jones came on his show before they announce of the President and said Hillary has won yet Trump won peoples vote..

          I had to listen to that song, hadn't heard it for years.  smile  Enough is enough!  Hillary should receive justice due for compromising our national security as Secretary of State, the Clinton Foundation pay to play, money laundering  and much more.  Without the internet, I don't believe Hillary would have been stopped, its her emails hacked and leaked to Julian Assange / Wikileaks that will ultimately convict her, (unless Obama gives her amnesty).   

          Jay Rockefeller said some years ago that he wished the internet hadn't been invented.  Basically, the government's secrets and security are open for attacks and hacks because of their strong desire for cyber surveillance and spying on us all, that they didn't want to close up back-doors that left them open.  Edward Snowden showed us that, (I see E.S. is smiling now and looking relaxed with a Trump victory, he'll get to live).

          Julian Assange should receive amnesty, and be offered US citizenship. He is a true liberal and a hero.  Edward Snowden, well that's a different story, but one that needs recognition.  I have to thank whistle-blowers in the government and especially intelligence, who did the right thing to expose Hillary and others.  And, the alternative media that kicked mainstream media's butts.

            I know Snowden took an oath of silence, but when you find out revelations the world should see, is that a bad thing? Should we live in the dark and punish a few daring people who won't allow that to happen?

        Sorry to rekindle your fears but Trump just announced Stephen Bannon as his chief strategist(1). Bannon was the head of the far-right website Breitbart News. Here are some quotes from articles written by or for Bannon:

        “Your birth control injection will add on pounds that will prevent the injection you really want — of man meat.”

        “Women should just log off. Given that men built the internet, along with the rest of modern civilisation, I think it’s only fair that they get to keep it.”

        “I, Donald Trump and the rest of the alpha males will continue to dominate the internet without feminist whining.”

        “None of the people involved in [the global warming] scam deserve the merest scintilla of respect. They are pure scum.”

        Quote from his ex-wife: "...the biggest problem he had with Archer is the number of Jews that attend. He said that he doesn't like Jews and that he doesn't like the way they raise their kids to be 'whiney brats' and that he didn't want the girls going to school with Jews."

        There's too many quotes to list.

        Basically sexist, racist Trump has appointed sexist, racist Bannon as his closest advisor. So not looking promising for the whole "bring the country together" thing so far.

The young women in particular forget they have the right to vote because of the women's shoulders they stand on. Protesting in the streets and blocking traffic will not result in changing this election result.

                One of your comments epitomizes why I was offended by part of Hillary's attempt to appeal. Women of any color are free to vote for whomever they choose. Attempting to bully them into voting minority is despicable, to me. I'm either free, or not. When a minority candidate tries to garner votes by pushing those within that minority to vote for them solely because of their status as the same minority they have stepped on dangerous ground. That may work in a local election but on the national level it tells me if they win the playing field may be unlevel.

                Being a woman is not a reason to vote for anyone. In a truly equal society.

It isn't, in some respects but I do not think anyone should vote for a person who is supposed to represent all of America because of their minority status. And Obama knew this when he ran for office.

    I hope that when he said he would "strongly consider" overturning the SSM decision that he was just saying what he knew the conservatives/Christians would want to hear, but if he has no intent to do it shouldn't people be pissed that he lied about it?  Lord knows you guys love jumping on Hillary for it.

      Aime,
      Time will tell. All politicians lie. Trump is a New Yorker who was also once a Democrat, and I suspect he really doesn't care too much about social issues right now. His inconsistency is a concern, but we have to give him a chance.

      I believe he chose Mike Pence to appease the Evangelical Christians. Lucky for Pence, he needed a job. I respect all religions, but this is a secular country, and I think the Evangelicals can do whatever they want,except dictate to everyone else what they should do.

      I will fight tooth and nail to get Citizen's United overturned, and to be sure Roe VS Wade stands. I also have concerns about gay marriage. Again, nobody is telling straight people (like me) that they have to do it, but it's a basic Civil Right that the LGBT community fought for over more than 50 yrs. The Civil Rights Act was passed so long ago, and look how some reacted to our first black President. Had Hillary won, she would have faced the same obstructionism. Trump won't take that.

      But Aime, I agree many R's are hypocrites and have that attitude all D's are Godless and unpatriotic people with no morals, which is not true. Trump is considering Newt Gingrich, married 3 X like him. They have no respect for the sanctity of marriage, and Guiliani doesn't always make sense when he speaks anymore, he's beginning to lose it mentally. Chris Christie is awful, our jails are full of innocent people, and he will add to the problem, not to mention the financial mess he would be leaving NJ in if Trump taps him for his cabinet. So far his selection ideas are awful.

      I don't think Trump personally has strong feelings one way or the other about LGBT issues, but he has proven himself to be easily swayed, and his running mate is one of the most anti-LGBT politicians active in America right now. Both Pence and the GOP party platform support so-called "conversion therapy" for LGBT people, which can involve stuff like electroshock treatment that's basically torture. I think LGBT people have more than enough indications to justify being extremely worried about the future right now.

      If you want to make a mandate, demand it and you will get heard.  Majority rule, because Trump isn't going to be bought by special interest groups. His "intent" is the will of the people.

          Can we agree that the real issue is unwanted pregnancies, so if we focused attention on preventing such pregnancies through family planning, sex-education, and reducing instances of rape and incest, there would be a significant reduction in the number of unwanted pregnancies, and therefore a significant reduction in the number of women needing or wanting an abortion. And because reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies would be the goal, both pro-life and pro-choice advocates could unite behind that common cause. How about it?

      Pence probably wants to "pray away the gay." I didn't pay much attention since I never dreamed The Donald would win. I really think he was bored and never expected to be nominated or to win the Presidency. On Election night, he looked shocked when he had to make an acceptance speech. He stood up straight and didn't let his oversized tie flop around. He actually was brief and sounded humble. So many are in shock. We don't know what to expect.

      Just the fact he spent an hour and a half with Obama, whose Presidency he tried to pretend didn't exist for 8 years, shows he was desperate and didn't even know how to start doing what had to be done. I read that he once asked the Gov of OH to be his VP, and told him his job would be foreign and domestic policy. That's the whole job!

        I hope you are enjoying your day as well. Although I did not think Bernie had a chance, I do respect and like him. And I do agree the party should have done more. They had tunnel vision about Trump voters, describing them in the wrong way in many cases. However, Comey never should have come out with derogatory news days before the election, and made it worse when he walked it back. Did it cost Hillary the election? Maybe not solely, but it was a contributing factor.

        But I am scared by the choices Trump is making for his advisers. A white supremacist? I've said before I didn't think Trump cares about Gays or Women or social issues. A born and bred New Yorker lives in the most diverse area of the country, and wouldn't give that another thought. But Bannon would. This man hates gays, anyone of color, Jews, women, the list is endless. Now a person like him is called alt-right? I can't stand all the labels!

          I think you are right that Trump couldn't care less about social issues, and that in and of itself is scary when you consider that he elevated Steve Bannon to the position of his chief strategist and senior planner.  My senator, Ron Wyden, released the following statement:

              "Steve Bannon ran a website that trafficked in anti-Semitism and boasted of being the voice of white nationalists. That’s a fact. There’s no spinning that.
              It’s outrageous the first announcement from the Trump administration is to announce the chief strategist will be a man who not only tolerated hate in every form, but actively courted it and fomented it.
              I’m the son of German-Jewish immigrants. My family left Nazi Germany and came to America. But it’s not just me saying that Bannon is an unacceptable choice. Reasonable people on the left and the right are just speechless that the president-elect is choosing to invite someone with this kind of record into the White House.
              The fact that Mr. Trump’s allies are dismissing anti-Semitism, misogyny and white nationalism so lightly demonstrates a shocking lack of respect for history and starts this administration off on a stunningly wrong foot."

          More from Forbes magazine:  Steve Bannon and Breitbart News:  Why everyone but the alt-right fears Trump's top adviser pick

          Excerpt:  "Under Bannon’s tenure, Breitbart has become reliably and openly anti-women, anti-semetic, anti-progress, anti-immigrant, and anti-nonwhites. Some of Breitbart’s most controversial stories in recent years featured headlines such as: “There’s No Hiring Bias Against Women In Tech, They Just Suck At Interviews,” “Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive And Crazy,” “Would You Rather Your Child Had Feminism Or Cancer?” and “Gabby Giffords: The Gun Control Movement’s Human Shield.”  In July 2015, just two weeks after nine people were shot to death while praying in an African-American Charleston church by a confederate flag-loving white supremacist, Breitbart published a story with the headline, “Hoist It High And Proud: The Confederate Flag Proclaims A Glorious Heritage.” Breitbart employs Milo Yiannpolis, a flagrantly racist, misogynist commentator who was banned by Twitter this year after inciting violent, racially-fueled cyberbullying of Ghostbusters star Leslie Jones. This summer at the Republican National Convention, Bannon proudly told a reporter that Breitbart is a “platform for the alt-right.” And it’s also a potential platform for a Trump White House that could present an obstacle for news outlets without such privileged connections."

          Question for Trump voters who have repeatedly said that Trump has nothing more than foot-in-mouth disease.  Do you still believe his racist and misogynistic comments were just non-PC blather with no substance behind it?  Or, are you starting to see a pattern here?  Or, do you still think it's "trivial"?

            Honest question, do you know who Milo Yiannopolous is? Were you familiar with him before this or are you only just now hearing his and Bannon's names?

              I have known who Steve Bannon is for as long as he has been running the Breitbart website, but no, I did not know Milo Yiannopolous.

            Pretty Panther,
            I completely agree this is a very serious situation. Trump also wants his 3 oldest children to have security clearance, and they will be running the Trump family business. The Clintons were crucified over the Clinton Foundation even after Chelsea began running it.

            But what can be legally done to stop Trump's madness? One day he seems serious and in old video, when we see him in meetings, he is quiet and appears to be intently listening. But these choices are dangerous to be speaking in the President's ear. He is so naive he asked Obama how much of the White House staff he had to replace. Obama told him "everyone." I still contend he never thought he would win, it was another attention getting scheme.

            Does the Constitution provide any action that can be taken against a President elect who is clearly in over his head, to the point he is willing to put our whole country in danger? Trump was willing to begin impeachment charges against Hillary on Inaugural Day. Can we do something like that against a man who clearly has no ideas about any of the issues and how to solve them, and is choosing to surround himself with dangerous people? And there is no reason why his adult children need security clearance, it's a conflict anyway as they will be running the family biz. Bannon hates everyone, and Priebus seems to have little convictions about anything. It's a scary and dangerous time for America. I tried to be fair and hoped he would drop the hateful, crazy act if he got elected. But apparently it's not an act, he really is that unstable.

              You sound just like one of the ones who stood in line and clapped while each child got a  trophy .     Remember as the right  ideology  complained that a- too young -too inexperienced , too socialist  - too naïve  President was elected eight years ago , AND you knew it too?      Well , this is the political balancing of the political system in a free republic nation  . get used to it . 

              As to Steve Bannon , I always thought he was too liberal.

    When you look at the lopsided voting from Hispanic, Blacks, Asian, Women Muslims, Jews, non Christian s, Gays,, Environmentist, Pro choice and so on and so on,  for Hillary.

       VS.

    Only lopsided with White Christian males.

    Why have a Constitution, Just proclaim Jesus and the White House your Supreme God. The rest of World will refuse to worship them even if predominately whites own 90% of nukes.

        They are not my facts these are facts that are presented mainly from white  established organization.  Always know when I'm on to something when people get very uncomfortable and shut down my thread for no good reason. Your Government has the greatest set of professionals liars in The world, why trust them?
