Trump supporter tells CBS: He will make America great again like it was before ‘the homosexuals’

-snip-

Following the third presidential debate, Face the Nation host John Dickerson spoke to a group of voters in Nevada about why they supported either Trump or Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

A voter named Barbara explained that she was motivated to support Trump because “morality and values” were important to her. “Based on what the country was based on,” she said. “I think that the laws that Obama has passed, the way the country has — I call it down turning. Some of the other people are proud of it and happy for it. I personally am against it, the homosexuals, the abortions. All the stuff, I am against.”

“When Donald Trump says ‘Make American Great Again,’ is that what you hear?” Dickerson wondered. “That it’s going to go back to before the time that you’re now describing?”

“That’s part of it,” Barbara agreed. Confronted with the possibility that Clinton could win the election, Barbara replied with two words: “Oh no.”

The sin of Sodom was inhospitality to strangers. In the ancient Middle East that was a grave insult. Raping a stranger that is a guest of a prominent landholder would be the ultimate violation of the code of hospitality.

Cohn, a gay man, personally advised and was counsel to Donald J. Trump.

How far back does she plan to set the time, just in case there may have been homosexuals before Roy Cohn.

Cohn, also a Jew, was a foul piece of shit. He was not only a self-loathing gay man, he was an anti-Semitic Jew. He was a close confidant of McCarthy, and did what he could to "name names" in the communist witch hunt which took place in the 50's. It is those type of minorities, self-loathing, self-serving, traitorous to their own kind, which excite and motivate the right.

that seems to be quite prevalent in republican voters. I could show anyone here a rock and most if not all here would agree that the rock is a rock. If a republican candidate for whatever office told any male republican voter that the rock is actually a pussy, they wouldn't question it. They would all immediately drop their pants and try to fuck it.

If you don't want to have an abortion, don't.

Live your life and leave the rest of us alone.

Gay marriage does not effect your straight marriage.

People having abortions does not effect your life.

Live and Let Live.

Mind your own business.

Keep your prayers to yourself.
