Last year around this time I said of all the pubby candidates, “the Republican party has an embarrassment of riches”. A year later I’m saying, “Once again the pubby party has proven itself an embarrassment.”
If he didn't, and presuming he didn't bring his camera, then the worst thing that happened was some creepy guy slightly dressed up like a woman came and used the bathroom.
Should not be a surprise to the Trumpsters, after-all they bought into the TransRepublican lock, stock & barrel.
It is one of the problems of speaking off the cuff, and hes definitely had a few bad off the cuff moments. I would count this as one of them.
I dislike Cruz a lot. I was a solid Trump fan. But this is an issue.
I guess its easier when your little grand daughters live a life where they will never use a public restroom in a park, or at a beach, and likely have security. But for us rubes, it can be different.
I doubt Trump has any concept of multiple stalls in a bathroom. Of course that is the only sane solution, no multiple user bathrooms period.
“These are the kinds of issue the left uses as a distraction to keep the right from coalescing around the existential battle of our time, which is our immigration system and our economic survival.”
The GOP have nothing, so we get nothing from them. Simple logic.
I support Trump because we have to win on TPP and the immi issue. This is a depressing day for Trump supporters who are conservative. He is no doubt thinking strategically here to gather up a few discontented Democrats and bolster his appeal. This is sadly what it may take to win the general. He must however stand firm on sovereignty issues.
Rationally, though, your daughters would always be under threat, whether it's bull-dykes, or people who intend to break the law by raping your daughter not caring about a law that would keep them out of the bathroom.
You really shouldn't be leaving your kids unattended in the first place.
RE: then the worst thing that happened was some creepy guy slightly dressed up like a woman came and used the bathroom.
And you’re willing to take that risk for children and make it legal, because Trump is for it?
“It’s a completely absurd picture. That man would be arrested for indecent exposure and probably a dozen other laws if he was snapping pictures.”
It isn’t absurd. You are at Disneyland or the beach. You are carrying a camera, or a modern smartphone in the hand. Shutters can be set to silent. You walk into the restroom. Happens all the time. I was for Trump, but he is dead wrong here.
RE: You really shouldn’t be leaving your kids unattended in the first place.
Let’s see your reasoning — there are risks of predators everywhere, therefore it’s OK to to ADD to the risk since the risk already exists ... and all these because Trump says it’s OK and he can never be wrong...
You take that risk leaving your son unattended in the men's restroom with other men. In what rational way has the threat-status of bathrooms gone up in the past few years, and in what rational way does the threat status go down once you have the government passing laws about bathrooms?
“Last year around this time I said of all the pubby candidates, “the Republican party has an embarrassment of riches”. A year later I’m saying, “Once again the pubby party has proven itself an embarrassment.””
Perfectly stated. And in this entire election, I would be ashamed to admit I supported any of the candidates. D or R.
Deceptive Donald’s mask has slipped and his liberal NY values exposed. It was only a matter of time. He called Bruce Jenner “Caitlyn” and referred to him as “she.”
Folks are worried about who gets into a bathroom when we have a real problem with who is getting into our Country? If a woman walks into a Mens room what’s the most that will happen? If a tranny who is really a male walks into a mens bathroom what’s the most that will happen? If a real man walks into a woman bathroom what will happen (the police will be called or the publicity will make people rethink this idiotic idea)? If Tranny walks into a woman Bathroom what will happen? Probably share makeup and horrible boyfriend stories! If a Dike walks into a womans bathroom, well hell that’s where she belongs. This is peanuts compared to our self-inflicted muzzie importation and open borders where who the hell knows who is coming in and how many of US will die!
But what is the logic supporting the idea that the risk is ADDED if we permit something that has been permitted for decades anyway? And why would a rapist disguised as a woman be deterred by a law when he plans to violate 3 or 4 other laws once he gets past the door?
Democrats are all about social issues. This is going to turn into 2008 all over again, this time with Trump agreeing with Hillary on this.
It’s part of the rat game plan.
You think that kind of crap aint happening now? Pervs will be pervs no matter the law!
Pathetic.
