Boy what you don't know is scary. Are you aware one of the leading anchor for FOX is gay and we have some in the senate that are thought to be gay. The right will not attempt in any way to make sexual orientation an issue. Do I think the country, overall will support an openly gay man who has a partner, his husband? No not yet, but don't blame this on FOX and Republicans.
I agree that the GOP will not make his orientation an issue but they most certainly will be pushing others to do so behind the scene's.

What you say is probably true. However, his orientation probably won’t matter to most millenials. He’ll get the LGBT vote. I told a solid Repub friend about him, and he didn’t have a problem with Mayor Pete being gay. People have evolved.
However, I think Trump will make a huge deal of it.

He'll get the LGBT vote. Quite the assumption! There's no unity among any class of people, why am I even saying that!
I'm Gay and he certainly won't get my vote. I vote from an astrological perspective. A Triple Aquarian with Mars in charming Libra? Never in a million years!!!
You have to be pretty darn Airy to speak 7 languages, and is that necessary for the Presidency? How many languages did Obama speak or JFK? Does it really matter?
I've heard it: "He's so articulate!" So what!!! Is that necessary to be a good President?
Will any candidate be as popular after they speak that many times? Personally, I mute the TV or radio when Trump comes on. Also, Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren.

I beg to differ! Being articulate is very important for a President. Other leaders will pay more attention when the President speaks. Citizens will listen to what is said in a well-delivered speech. Speaking other languages is great if a President can communicate with citizens of various other nations. Plus, it takes brains to learn all those other languages. Having an intelligent President is extremely important. He/she will make better decisions. We will all be safer with a smart person in the White House.
So you base your vote on astrology?? You and Nancy Reagan. LOL

I'm not at all sure Trump would make a big deal of anyone's orientation. He's always seemed to be pretty comfortable around gays, and he has known (or knows) a lot of them.
His main man, the guy who inspired him the most of all, wasn't his father. It was Roy Cohen, his gay attorney who died of AIDS. That says something to me about his gay acceptance.
But I can always be wrong, because one thing Trump took from Cohen and has used the most is to never neglect any possible target to attack if it is in your favor.

Trump folds to those around him. So he will have to bend to win the evangelicals or at least the major supports who are.
The worst thing possible for Trump is for political oriented preachers to start telling their flocks that "you have no choice in this election". That hurts him in Pennsylvania and Ohio the most of the swing states.
