What does "do you have a mirror available?" mean? Are you a fan of Donald Trump?

Trump marginalizes the LGBT community: In an interview with The New York Times in 2011, Trump compared same-sex marriage to golf, calling it "weird." "It's like in golf...A lot of people, I don’t want this to sound trivial but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive."

Trump was also against the recent Supreme Court ruling in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage in all 50 states, tweeting out "Once again the Bush appointed Supreme Court Justice John Roberts has let us down. Jeb pushed him hard! Remember!" Despite being married three times, Trump says he stands for traditional marriage of one man, one woman.



Do you think Trump is not racist, homophobic, etc? It sounds like you're here at a Trump defender? Or maybe you aren't defending him, but you think the criticism is too harsh. You should read the link anyway.

I was surprised to see what appears to be a Trump defender in this thread, and I read your response in that frame of mind. If I misread it, I apologize.

his name and image in the media. The guy is a show boat and that is it. When you need to hire your audience,that should tell all. A fake is a fake. That's all folks.

Put all the chips on the table and dare the mass media to call the bluff - or fold and live to fight another day?

I say CALL, all in, time is not in your side, racists, oligarchs and theocratists of America!
