I've got it: Trump announces a pro-gay adoption EO, and includes in it how it's much more progressive than the backwards Muslim countries. How bad is the melt?

Even if the EO is absolutely in favor of all things LGBTQ, the Left, the LGBTQ community and the MSM's response will be: HE DIDN'T GO FAR ENOUGH!

If it falls on the other side, we can all imagine the outcry and result.

Politically, there is no need to touch this. Those who are most concerned about it will never come into Trump's camp. Ever.

Leave it alone.

I can't imagine the EO will turn out to be anti-LGBT.

Then again I haven't proven to be a good prognosticator on all things Trump.

Very large grains of salt with wording like this...

But still not promising.

Really? Did you do any research on his VP pick prior to the election? Pence despises gay people, at least his voting record on gay issues suggests that.

Holy shite. If this is what it is, things will get ugly. Protests will be bigger than anything we've seen.

I think kids being raised by gay parents is unnatural and less than ideal.

That said, if kids that weren't going to be adopted are now going to have loving parents, my objections just aren't that important.


This is kind of where I sit on it, too. I'm still not convinced it's a great solution, but sometimes there just aren't great solutions.

We should have never allowed the government to get involved in issuing marriage licenses in the first place,


We, meaning our ancestors in Western civilization, didn't "allow" "government" to issue marriage licenses. Society recognized that, due at the very least to the nature of man, if not also to natural law and the desires of our Creator, society would be best served by encouraging fruitful one man, one woman relationships.
We chose wisely to encourage marriage for millennia.
We have foolishly chosen to officially chip away at the meaning of marriage for the last 40 years or so.

I can't see anyway this isn't pro LGBT even with Pence, if its a shutdown Trump is going to see if he can drop below Nixon/W approval inside of a month (already set the record for fastest President to majority disapproval, breaking Reagan's record by 700+ days).

I can't imagine the content of that Sheets tweet is true. So far everything he's done has been exactly what he campaigned on. He didn't campaign anti-gay. Frankly the opposite.

If it is true, I'll eat my words. But I just don't see it.

Jesus Christ.

I am not going to melt until it's actually released, but I'll be done with even remotely defending him.
