Donald Trump hasn't acknowledged it's Pride Month and people have definitely noticed

Despite what you've heard — or rather, have not heard — from the White House, June is Pride Month.

To celebrate and show support for the LGBTQ community, Twitter has released a custom heart emoji, Instagram added some fierce AF stickers to its app, and Google even dedicated a Doodle to the honor the American artist and LGBTQ rights activist who crated the rainbow flag. President Trump, however, has done nothing.

We're already two days into June and have heard complete silence from the White House in regards to Pride. Needless to say, people have definitely noticed — and they're not happy about it.

Though the White House has released statements publicly declaring this month National Homeownership, Ocean, African-American Music Appreciation, and Great Outdoors month, the president has yet to acknowledge Pride Month.

You'd think a man who tweeted about the LGBTQ community that one time, promising to fight for their freedoms and beliefs during his campaign, would be attentive and eager to celebrate a month dedicated to just that. So far, though, nothing....

LGBT’s always say they want to be treated like everyone else...

Why then, should you want a “special” month???

There isn’t a “special” month for everyone......

If June is “Pride Month” . . .

When is “Adultery Month”?

January.

When is “Theft Month”?

December.

When is “Dishonor your Father and Mother Month”?

October.

(Just my guesses. YMMV)

Yea, my grandmother used to talk about all the gay times she had growing up and stuff. And how so and so was really queer for doing something or another.

She’d be 126 this year. Glad she didn’t live to see all this crap.

Pride month? We just 8 years of pride Obama.

I'm proud that after 8 terrible years of Obama, Trump is our president and Hillary isn't.

They never noticed that he said he’d support them as citizens and fight for their rights and freedoms - not help glorify their defects.

I've noticed and am simply thrilled about it!

Besides sharing my June birth month with the President, it used to really make me sick that Obama just couldn't wait to declare the month of my birth, "Gay Pride Month!"

I needed an item that only my area Nordstrom's carries and I was confronted by all of the muscular "guys" sporting their "gay" tee shirts the minute I stepped in the door!

Two of them in the cosmetics area, were "decorated" with lots of eyeliner, penciled in brows and shadow! Presumably because they wore their cosmetic company tunics instead of being able to sport their "gay" tee shirts with pride!

YUK - I'm not the least bit prejudiced against gays but I do wish they'd leave off that RuPaul crap in public!

Trump could have the WH lit up like a rainbow the whole month and the liberals would still hate him. So what’s the point besides the fact that that group doesn’t have any reason to be celebrated by anyone

Gun Safety? I handed heard that one yet. It would be funny if the stakes weren’t so high.

I don’t want to celebrate or show support for the LGBTQ community... They are a bunch of sick puppies.

I would take pride in my gov’t if we locked these sick freaks up, awaiting arraignment for violating laws against sodomy.

I would take even greater pride if the penalties were consistent with God’s law (Leviticus 20:13) which Jesus did not abrogate.

Why do homosexuals feel the need, to have some official presidential proclamation or recognition, of their condition?

it provides affirmation that they are normal. Special even.

It is Sodomite Awareness Month.

Keep an eye on your children.

Trump will eventually give his praise for weirdos that voted for him.
We will probably just have to deal with it.
I pray for them to all to turn from that sin.
(Then, they can become a regular sinner like me)

Being tolerant doesn’t mean we have to celebrate it.

You know, it’s really gutsy for gays to use one of those things.

They have no idea if they are going to be intact afterwards.

Did it never occur to anyone that someone could be waiting on the other side with a knife?
