“Note to everyone here, he repeatedly said he will rescind it and hopefully the STATES will do the right thing.”

Face it. When Trump says “the right thing” he means let men in the women’s places.

His view is different than yours or mine.

“It is a very, very small portion of the population, but as I said, you have to protect everybody, including small portions of the population,” Trump said.

How is that Constitutional?

No. Obama wants to mandate that businesses and publically owned sex-exclusive areas allow men into the women’s places. At least he doesn’t appear to want that.

Now I wish he said he hopes it is simply let up to business owners to decide, like he and Target did. Whish is nutso in itself. I don’t know what he thinks about a state mandating men can go in the publically owned women’s exclusive areas. That’s the question. To me this whole issue looks a lot like the ‘gay marriage’ thing did 20 years before it was just imposed like it was really no big deal after all or something. Not a good cultural indicator we are even having this discussion.

No, face it, when Trump “hopes” the states will do the right thing, he is leaving it to the states. You want a federal bathroom law?

Time for rebellion against the pen and phone want to be dictator.

I wish someone had the spine to just call it what it is. It’s a mental/emotional illness. It’s been called gender dysphoria.

Subjecting children and women to people suffering from this disorder is like telling stores they have to allow kleptomaniacs to steal.

Before 40 years ago, they were in the mental institutions.

The irony is that 80%+ of transgenders are men, fewer than a quarter have the surgery to remove the plumbing. So they demand acceptance as women, while retaining male organs.
To make it even worse is the large majority of these men who are sexually attracted to women, hence the statement that they are transgendered lesbians.
So they have a warped body image but otherwise normal sexuality.

The irony is that Black Lives Matter and social justice warriors are demanding separate spaces for various ethnic groups away from whites - but you can’t do the same for gender.

There is a large percentage of the population that won’t vote for a social conservative.
Frankly, just closing the borders, deporting the illegals and improving the economy is good enough compared to either Democrat winning. And boosting the economy will boost the birth rate, too.

Since the vast majority are truly men, I now believe it’s a sexual thing for these people. I notice most of them are “lesbians.”

Given the mind-set of so many people, saying It’s interesting probably helps his polls. He can appoint Dr McHugh for Surgeon General after elected.

Of course you are right. Men have different sexual drives than women. Men who claim to be women who are attracted to women are attracted to women like a man would be, not like a woman would be. It’s really not that hard. They really aren’t lesbians. It amazes me that there are many who seem to have trouble with this.

Freaks are now interesting people?

There was a time when they were neither seen nor heard.

I don’t get the fetish with cross-dressing and pretending to be someone other than yourself.

Then again, I’m old-fashioned.

It's a hot-button issue and lots of recent activity/turmoil going on - you think he should fan the flames? His message is the one we've been aching to hear from Presidents/Congress/etc. - "It's a State Issue - the Feds should be hands-off"....

These words from Trump sound downright presidential... so where did my orange-hair troll-doll go? (J.K. y’all, so laugh, don’t hate!)
