Mr Trump and the LGBT Community

For John, BLUF:  It is profitless to make enemies when you don't have to.♠  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Memo to the LGBT community: Donald Trump is not your enemy

From The Hill and written by Mr Joseph R. Murray II, administrator for LGBTrump,

Here is the lede plus one:

Donald Trump had no sooner delivered his victory speech and my Facebook page — LGBTrump (the largest gays for Trump Facebook page) — was inundated with messages from LGBT Americans fearful that the president-elect would take away their rights.

Why were so many messages pouring in?  The LGBT Left was off the rails telling the LGBT community that its rights — especially marriage — were on the chopping block under President-elect Trump.

The author then proceeds to show that Mr Trump has shown himself to be supportive of Gay Rights, and has done so for some time.

If the Pro-Clinton/Anti-Trump folks want to discuss the election we need to not wander too far afield from the facts.  On the other hand, if they just want to rant, I hope they are not offended if those of us who voted for Mr Trump ignore them.  And if they are offended I hope they eventually get over it.  Otherwise they will lead miserable lives from now until judgment day.

To paraphrase John Wayne as Sargeant Stryker in "The Sands of Iwo Jima".

Life is tough. It is tougher if you lack a sense of proportion
