Trump breaks with Obama tradition of designating June as ‘LGBT Pride Month

May 2, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) — President Trump is not celebrating June as “LGBT Pride Month” with an official proclamation, like his predecessor Barack Obama did every year, although various federal agencies are still holding “pride” events and making pro-LGBT statements.

The Washington Blade, a newspaper for homosexuals in the nation’s capital, reports that Trump is “breaking with a tradition started under the Obama administration” by not issuing the “gay pride” declaration, which irked social conservatives year after year in the beginning of June.

Good.

[Oceander]

If it only started under Obama it's not much of a tradition as far as presidential traditions go. 

[skeeter]

Makes sense. Why designate an entire month for such a tiny fraction of the population, most of whom self identify due to a deviant sexual practice?

[Frank Cannon]

The Washington Blade Post, a newspaper for homosexuals in the nation’s capital....

There. Fixed the typo.

[Old Warrior in Exile]

The homosexual activist group Log Cabin Republican thanked Ivanka Trump on Twitter for her “gay pride month” tweets. LCR is lobbying the Trump administration to support LGBT advocacy on various fronts.

The LCRs. I had forgotten about that bunch of rump rangers.

What's the difference between a Democrat fairy and a Republican fairy?

They may vote differently, but they obviously have the same agenda.

Yep. Now is the time to break with an Obama Administration policy of declaring pride in deviancy. A tradition needs to be more than one page deep to have any traction.

There. Fixed the typo.

Was that capital or capitol?

Being tolerant doesn't mean we have to celebrate it.

Being tolerant doesn't mean we have to celebrate it.

There is a difference between being tolerant and being forced to compromise one's principles.

Awesome news!!!

[Smokin Joe]

Awesome news!!!

Yes, actually, it is.

@Right_in_Virginia I have decided to ping you every time I say something Trump does (or in this case, doesn't do) is good. That way, you won't wonder if I ever have anything good to say about him. If you find this annoying, just let me know and I'll quit.

[Wingnut]

The White House has covered the important stuff for the month and have released statements publicly declaring this:
National Homeownership month
Something something about the Ocean month
African-American Music Appreciation month,
and Great Outdoors month.

[jmyrlefuller]

and Great Outdoors month.

Meh. The movie was kind of funny, but worthy of a whole national month?

@Right_in_Virginia I have decided to ping you every time I say something Trump does ...

Please don't @Smokin Joe .  It's more annoying than helpful ..... and in all candor,  I really don't care that much.

But thanks for the consideration.

That's a great idea!

But thanks for the consideration.   

Okay, I won't, out of consideration for your feelings. Please do not ever accuse me of not ever supporting Trump when he gets things right. Thank you.

[Suppressed]

But thanks for the consideration.   

I suppose that means you don't want me to, either, @Right_in_Virginia .  And that you won't every make silly accusations as if I don't give credit when it's due.

[corbe]

Okay, I won't, out of consideration for your feelings. Please do not ever accuse me of not ever supporting Trump when he gets things right. Thank you.

   @Right_in_Virginia may be confusing you for me @Smokin Joe  It is I who has not acknowledged the President's recent stellar achievements, I just figured why bother, everybody knows I hate him.

One president does not a tradition make.  Particularly that one.  Let's forget LG whatever for a while.

I will also acknowledge this is a good Trump move.  June is special to me.  My Birthday month.  I like to think of it as the perfect weather month.  A time that I enjoy the sunshine, flowers, butterflies, KOI, hummingbirds..............  Sorry I don't want to share the goodness of June with deviant sex.

BTW..........Was driving home from work today.  What do I see walking down the road?  Tranny in fishnet stockings that was obviously a man.  Ugliest thing ever.  Yuck.  Looked like something out of a horror story.

What people don't understand is that even people who "hate" him can be inherently fair enough to give him credit for getting things right.

It will take us years to get over what Obama did to America.  But this is a good start.

    I was feeding @Emjay with that hate thing @Smokin Joe but she refused to take the bait.
    That word is inconceivable to me. I don't like the man but I often don't like my Presidents, especially the last 35 years.

Don't think I don't appreciate your trying to start sumpin' but I am a reformed person and terrified of the mods.
