Trump administration launches global effort to end criminalization of homosexuality

The Trump administration is launching a global campaign to end the criminalization of homosexuality in dozens of nations where it's still illegal to be gay, U.S. officials tell NBC News, a bid aimed in part at denouncing Iran over its human rights record. U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell, the highest-profile openly gay person in the Trump administration, is leading the effort, which kicks off Tuesday evening in Berlin. The U.S. embassy is flying in LGBT activists from across Europe for a strategy dinner to plan to push for decriminalization in places that still outlaw homosexuality — mostly concentrated in the Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean. “It is concerning that, in the 21st century, some 70 countries continue to have laws that criminalize LGBTI status or conduct,” said a U.S. official involved in organizing the event.

He’s actually doing this so that the left will now make a push to ban homo fanny packers in the US.

Why do I feel like this is a stunt that he will claim he didn't authorize as soon as his Evangelical handlers revolt against him?

You won’t hear much about this from his opponents.

Trump is NOT a homophobe. Why do you think this?

IDK. You tell us. Probably has something to do with TDS. Trump says one thing you believe the other despite doing what he said he was going to do and you being super mad at him regardless of whether or not he did what he said or did something differently regardless of the reasons are circumstances surrounding the results of what he said he was going to do.

I think you've lost touch with where evangelical leaders are on matters such as this. They do not wish to have secular values imposed on them - and certainly do not want to be forced in condoning activity they believe to be immoral - but the Hillsboro Baptist-style homophobes are in very short supply. If the president retreats on this it will be because of allies in the Muslim world.
