Presidential Election - 40

Well I mean Trump himself said he wouldn't accept the results if Hillary won

yah not just because she would have beat him, it's the fact she got caught doing voter fraud and other illegal things during the election but never got called on it, which isn't a fair run

how could anyone support a candidate who can't even run on their own merit but instead has to cheat her way through the election?

if Hillary won, there wouldn't be riots like there are now, there would just be a ton of people pressuring the government to grow a set and prosecute her like she should be

anyway, most rioters probably don't even support Hillary, it's just an excuse to act like an ape and destroy and steal things, so I'm not going to associate the rioters with Hillary only the protesters

Trump has literally said he wants to bring back "traditional" marriage and his VP has supported conversion therapy. I'd say their fears are justified, how have they been brainwashed?

shouldn't have strayed away from traditional marriage in the first ****ing place

Colin · 11-10-2016

Just because his personal belief is traditional marriage doesn't mean he's some huge anti-LGBTQ monster, all he's simply said is the choice should be up to the individual states to rule on, which includes more than just ruling on same-sex marriage.

He opposed a recently passed bill in North Carolina that prohibits people from using public bathrooms that dont align to their born gender, hes openly stated transgenders should use the bathroom they feel comfortable in

He supported amending the 1964 civil rights act to include a ban of discrimination based on sexual orientation.

He has tons of gay friends who speak highly of him, even gay people he knows a bit but aren't necessarily friends, including Elton John (Trump happily celebrated his marriage), if you ask any gay person who's been in contact and spoken to Trump a few times they'd all be surprised his personal belief is traditional marriage.

He was the first private Palm Beach club owner to openly admit a gay couple, and stand up for the rights of Jewish people and African-Americans to be able to join private clubs as well.

Not to mention all the times he's donated to AIDS research and charity organizations focusing on AIDS with gay couples.

I'm not saying he's some LGBTQ monster, I wouldn't even say he's homophobic - he just hasn't supported LGBTQ rights throughout his campaign as you say he has.

Marriage is a basic human right, something that everyone should be entitled to. If you're religion disagrees then don't marry someone of the same sex, you should not be entitled to take away that right from someone else. The reality is that it doesn't effect you who someone else marries, so why stop them?

Trump said this in an interview with Fox News earlier this year:

"If I'm elected, I would be very strong on putting certain judges on the bench that I think maybe could change things," Trump said. "They have ruled on it. I wish that it was done by the state. I don't like the way they ruled. I disagree with the Supreme Court from the standpoint they should have given the state — it should be a states' rights issue. And that's the way it should have been ruled on, Chris, not the way they did it."

Looking for a concise answer, Wallace asked Trump if he would "try to appoint justices to overrule the decision on same-sex marriage."

"I could strongly consider that, yes," Trump said.

Today marks the transitional meeting between Obama and Trump.

Trump has no say in transgender issues, sexual orientation issues, etc. However, he does have a say in the Supreme Court justice(s) that he will nominate. Depending on who he puts in the SC, things like same-sex marriage could be overturned. That's not a state's right to prevent you from marrying someone. It's the definition of discrimination and violates equal protection under the law. If the SC would overturn it, then it would allow states to go as far as to say blonde people can only marry other blondes. Black people can only marry other blacks. In fact, overturning same-sex marriage theoretically would automatically overturn the case allowing inter-racial marriage. I hope Trump makes a wise decision with his SC nominee(s) and I expect him to since I voted for him, but it's pefectly understandable why the LGBTQ community would be scared right now.

bahahahahahahahah CNN outs themselves as using their own cameramen as fake protester

also Trump is projected to win the popular vote

good video to watch

Thallen · 11-10-2016

These protests are a direct result of the shift in the culture in the US, ever since around the time Obama was originally elected. People are too coddled and protected, and now they think that all they have to do is scream loudly or be offended to get what they want.

The screenshots of people saying stuff like "I'M LITERALLY SHAKING RN" and "I'M SO TERRIFIED" in reaction to Trump… You live in the best country in the world and you're sitting in your bedroom on a $500 phone in the air conditioner using your Twitter safe space. Are you joking?

Instead of reporters asking these protesters why they're so upset, all you need to do is ask them, "Were you upset when Hillary Clinton deleted 33,000 incriminating emails? Were you upset when Hillary Clinton's campaign was funded by a country that takes in no Syrians and beheads gays and women?" That's when the stuttering begins and you'll quickly see that they have no real purpose or message.

I'm pretty sure protesting is now just a thing people do as a social event to feel important and included. These people are losers. There's no message. The media plays these morons up as "revolutionaries." I was watching CNN yesterday (just for the tears), they went and selectively found a Hispanic (you know, because they're more likely to have a strong message against Trump) to interview at a protest. He literally took the mic and said "GRAB DONALD TRUMP BY THE *****!" There's your powerful and important message.

Pathetic story nonetheless. Not to mention "GrubHub" is the smuttiest name for a food delivery company.

Yeah people are burning their New Balance shoes because New Balance supports Trump.

Waste of perfectly good shoes... #checkyourprivilege

Seems like trumps gonna continue to be blunt and honest about all the current events on his twitter. Not sure if good or bad thing. Definitely will warp the definition of presidential considering most presidents have had a lot of input from advisers and script writers telling them what to say before they make an announcement. Even if what he's saying has merit the blunt nature of it wont help unite the country.

It's so bad, CNN using fake protesters, people making false stories up, there's even buses filled with protesters being dropped off in certain locations

There was a video uploaded of people gang beating a Trump supporter, Youtube/Twitter both removed it and Youtube is issuing strikes to any account that reuploads it, yet they have thousands of videos that are even worse and any video showing "Trump supporters" being violent is still up

they vote for net neutrality then pull this, disgusting

This is exactly why Trump won, people are tired of this

Bro I don't think u know what net neutrality is

Bro I don't think u know what net neutrality is

The principle that Internet service providers should enable access to all content and applications regardless of the source, and without favoring or blocking particular products or websites.

They backed it up because they claim the internet should be open and uncensored, the second they start censoring and favoring their content (which they do, it's horrible), they are doing the exact thing they voted against.

Net neutrality extends far beyond just Internet service providers, the movement was way more than that.

These big outlets like Youtube, Twitter, Facebook are complete garbage.

Muslim student fabricated a story about being attacked by Trump supporters, but by the time police investigated and proved she was lying it already took off and made people hate Trump even more the damage is done, her fake story was released with absolutely no factual basis by major news outlets, none of which went on to report it was fake after

just open up social media and there's so many fake stories about this **** being shared around
