bwahahaha.

Seriously?

Pay attention to your candidate. He's for raising the minimum wage, he wants to repeal Obamacare because he wants to have universal healthcare paid for by the government. He's mentioned that higher taxes on the wealthy are coming via removal of loopholes.

Note-not a recommendation to vote for Trump.

Who's forcing their sexual thoughts and behaviors on you?

Are you being forced to have a same sex relationship? Is someone making you march in a pride parade? Did you wake up one morning and find yourself handcuffed to a chair at a gay wedding, unable to leave?

That would be wrong but I kinda doubt that's happening.

This is a big issue. Liberals are going to try their best to label Trump as too liberal, or worse. The irony is that the alternative (as you point out) is Hillary. The argument is terrible, but the US has millions of ignorant voters! Unfortunately, hard-line conservatives are also going to bash Trump because they are narrow minded. In a weird twist of fate, Trump becomes the "moderate" candidate.

I was forced by my friends to march at a gay pride parade in support of them via emotional manipulation that makes me believe they are good people. Never been handcuffed to a chair at a gay wedding, but who knows. Maybe if they wanted a themed wedding that required their minister to be handcuffed.

Nothing wrong with any of that

I disagree. He has made his positions known on many issues. I'm sure I won't agree with everything he does, heck that wouldn't happen with ANY candidate. I do know Hillary would be a disaster for any freedom loving American that wants less government in their lives.

P.S. I'm not even a Republican.

Actually his views have been a bit flip floppy. Both of these candidates horrify me. We have 300 million people in this country, and these two folks represent the best that should lead? I'd sooner have my 21 year old daughter run this country then these two.

1. The media

Its a shame that we are always talking about this. 50 people died and gays want to take credit or being gay. It is quite possible that some of those people in Orlando were heterosexuals.
Homosexuality offends me. So, when a person says or does something that offends someone else it is a problem!

Lol, so I should vote for Hillary? Yeah, okay. Not. I'll have two real options on Election Day, and I'll vote for the least offensive candidate.

That's not his fault. At least he is saying the right things and if we throw our support behind him he may get some of it done. Someone not saying the right things won't even be trying to get the right things done.

Read my other post.
I have no idea who you should vote for. But you should be honest with yourself about your candidate.

I wont recommend Clinton either. For me she is the better of two sucky choices, for you it may be Trump. Shrug.
