SOme facts that seem to escape the hand wringing nuttiness expressed by our neighborhood PROGs.
Frist, Trump hasn't named much of his cabinet. which makes since. no previous president in recent history had named much of his cabinet this soon after election
Second, On gay issues, Mr. Trump had Peter Thiel speak at the Republican convention.. Thiel is the first openly gay person to do such. Thiel is also on the Trump transition team. Further, TheDonald was asked about his view of the SCOTUS and gay marriage. He stated clearly and directly that this was law of the land and he had no desire to look for judges that would seek to overturn it. Mr. Trump spoke forcefully at the convention about gay hate crimes. Using the FL nightclub shooting as a point to speak to all Americans that attacking gay people for being gay was wrong.
Third, as a business owner, Mr. Trump had as many if not more female executives as males. they were paid on par with their male counterparts. That is a stark contrast to the Clinton team. Clinton paid her female leaders far less both at Stae and in her campaign.
PROG nonsense needs to be called out. Its stupidity. It is obfuscation and its a pack of lies.

Exactly and that's why threads like this one are flat out confusing. Everything in Trump's past has shown he has NO issue with promoting qualified women, often at higher rates than his contemporary counterparts in other large corporations. In addition, Peter Thiel and his speaking out about the Orlando club shooting came to mind immediately as well. I can't decide if it's willful ignorance, believing the BS far left 'media' is spouting, or just lying and trying to start something. Even a very quick Google search would have shown these people how wrong they are but alas that was too hard, I guess?
I hope this isn't the way it appears. But I have yet to hear of anyone but old, fat, white, religious extremist, anti glbt, racist men being proposed for leadership in the Trump administration.
Not one woman, no blacks, no gays? Not even a hint of a moderate White House.
Did we just vote Hitler and the Third Riche into power? I'm pretty sure that's about how the nazis started, with good intentions.
Please stay in your uninformed, illiterate bubble. We don't need you out here mucking up Reality.

Who Cares. If they are not qualified or fit the team . The Cabinet is still forming.
This is not about feelings, it getting the job done!
If you're "pretty sure that's about how the nazis started, with good intentions" then you never paid attention in a history class. Just like many of those with similar thoughts, you are quick to throw labels at Trump, but overlook that it is the Democrat party that more closely resembles fascists at the moment.

Just look at the M.O. of the left. Their plan has been to shout down, intimidate, and then ultimately physically attack the opposition. Please, crack a book.
Yup. They're the ones screaming that the right are a bunch of fascists, yet they are the side demanding that a legal election be overturned, and the voters ignored. Nothing screams fascism like a scam election.
Everything I said is true. He's not comfortable with blacks and other minority groups. Why would he be? He's never associated with them.
I didn't say that he was bad because of that fact. But it's a fact regardless.
Come on, now. You're usually pretty intellectually honest about stuff. Even you have to admit that this is a complete lie.
