Has Donald Trump stated anything definitive about the Supreme Court ruling upholding Gay Marriage?
06/28/2015

Posted on 06/28/2015 7:33:28 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

I've looked, and I have looked, and I can't find any articles or interviews or any public statements by Donald Trump stating whether he supports or is against the Supreme Court ruling that Gay Marriage is constitutional.

Can any of your Donald Trump fans provide links to any statement by "The Donald" where he mans-up and takes a side on this issue?

But he didn’t say he was against gay marriage.

At this point I don’t trust a word he says. I’m 50 years old and have seen him in the public eye for at least 30 years.

The other article seemed to affirm he was pro-traditional marriage. I know I saw you comment on one of the articles.

Per: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3305491/posts

Quote:
“The real estate mogul revisited his socially conservative views on abortion and marriage with awareness that they are difficult for many to understand given his personal history.

“I’m (for) traditional marriage,” he said.

When asked how Trump reconciles the notion of “traditional marriage” with his personal history of being married three times and divorced twice, Trump conceded the point. “

I admit, I don’t trust Trump as he could be a decoy and hasn’t proven his values realistically.

But the guy does fight. Univision, he’s telling them off.

I also don’t approve of his apparently dropping some profanity now and then, maybe that’s not a big deal, it’s not like I never have.

And yet, he is too chicken to make a statement on the ruling by the Supreme Court making Gay Marriage constitutional.

That interview is probably from before the verdict. Anyway, I like a candidate with a track record which Trump does not have, just words.

No it is not.

It is from today, from CNN.

He answers the questions, he said he was for Traditional Marriage. If that is not good enough for you, so be it, I can’t see the interview now, maybe later.

For Trumps view on gay marriage,
Just find the rant he had with Rosie Odonnel, calling her a pig.

Nope, that was a general statement on Traditional Marriage. Donald has chickened out on speaking on the Supreme Court's ruling that Gay Marriage was constitutional.

Get back to me when he mans up and makes a statement one way or the other on the Supreme Court ruling.

That's not what I am looking for.

I want to know what his position is on the Supreme Court's ruling that Gay Marriage is now constitutional.

I did watch the interview, in it's entirety.

He was never asked about the recent Supreme Court Ruling making Gay Marriage constitutional.

They tried to put him on the spot for having had 3 marriages, how can he be critical of same-sex marriage.

Not very clear what he’s saying:

Yes, and I got the feeling that Trump was including the passage of time in his thinking:

...come on gang, when a little more time passes we will all think gay marriage is a fun idea.

Wow - putting a stopwatch on how long it takes for someone to have a recorded comment on something - do you use this sort of data for making serious decisions or is it just a pastime exercise?
