Also better they are raised by gay taxpaying parents instead of public funds in the system right?



Adoption is by its nature risky. Offspring being raised by anyone other than their biological parents is something we should avoid if possible.
We should minimize the risks if it's the only option.
One way to do that would be to have all pertinent information about the prospective parents.

I would think it is part of a meta-strategy to exhaust the left more than anything else (assuming that tweet is correct).

If you pile up enough stuff guaranteed to cause a reaction, you can create outrage fatigue.

If he signs something limiting this, he will be a fool. Republicans need to leave this issue alone.

It's an issue that has no future for Republicans. No significant portion of young people give a shite about gay marriage or adoption by gays.

And frankly, I always thought of all the groups they argued that Trump hated, the LGBT population had the most evidence to the contrary (I.e., Trump seemed supportive). So this would be surprising.

Certainly would lend credence to the notion that Trump is a figurehead president who just signs whatever they put in front of him
