re: #41 lawhawk

It is clear to all who see what Trump’s doing is that he’s looking to curb civil rights to so many people who have had rights restored or gained rights/protections over the past 50 years.

He’s on pace to be the most regressive president in our nation’s history in record time.

Curbing civil rights for LGBT shows that anyone who thought he was going to just pay lip service isn’t paying attention. The GOP doesn’t have a problem with any of this either. They think this is fine - they opposed Obergefell and LGBT rights. They oppose protecting rights of minorities like Muslims who come here to avoid oppression elsewhere.

It’s what the GOP does. It’s who they have been for far too long.

I suppose the Log Cabin Republicans are down with this.

How about the Human Rights Campaign? They endorsed former Senator Mark Kirk (R-Ill) against (then) Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D) because they thought Kirk had “evolved” on the issue and Republicans needed to be rewarded for taking a principled stand or some such derp.

HRC lost a lot of members and donors (including me) over that endorsement.
