Trump's Global Campaign to Decriminalize LGBTQ

@no1marauder said
While the US government has held the position for a while that such laws should be ended and though this seems just another facet of the anti-Iran campaign, I fully support such an initiative.

I wonder if it will remain in effect, however, once the inevitable backlash from social conservatives is heard by Trump. He has backtracked on many policies (like the Syria withd ...[text shortened]... ng about the Court adopting the "homosexual agenda". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_v._Texas

Right.

But he has been known to make small grabs for LGBTQ support, including during his campaign.

It's certainly not something that he boasts about but these occasional gestures have occurred before.

Yeah... one can only wonder what it will be...

Oh, perhaps transgenders in the army...

See, this is the fun thing about Pres. Trump...

He's simultaneously an idiot yet unbeatable.

Let's say he is an idiot and all that he accomplishes is largely due to the genius of people around him... How does he manage to keep their loyalty? How did he convince them to stand by him, and to never turn on him or cheat him? How did he pick them so well?

When people are killed over it, or lose jobs, or don't get hired in the first place, or even kill themselves after incessant harassment, yeah, that's criminal.
