Promises made and promises now on hold

BHE & Shooter, polls show when it comes to topics such as respect for Trump the body politic is sharply divided.

After a month in office, a Pew poll shows 63% of the Republicans think Trump is doing better than they expected.

On the other hand, would bet after a month non-Trumpers would say this about "respect". Trump has no respect for traditional values such as democracy and balance of powers between the branches of government, or our European allies.

What were the expectations of those 63%? Did they expect he would start a nuclear war on day 1? Well, yes, by that measure he’s done better than expected. That poll doesn’t tell us a whole lot.

if he had a 98 percent approval rating does that change anything, he's a corrupt dumbass and is killing the country, if people like you approve of him, it's irrelevant to me.

LGBTQ is killing the Country!

In my opinion we are all different to some degree.

My best friends growing up were twin brothers. To me they were entirely different. To almost everyone else, they were exactly the same in every way.

There is nothing wrong with being different except when you harm others.

And trying to push their agenda on others.

Iowa just became the first state to remove gender identity from its anti-discrimination laws.

You can now legally be denied housing or fired from a job simply for being even suspected of being trans. Is opposing such laws "pushing an agenda"?

Opposing or promoting are both agendas.

Opposing or promoting are both agendas.

More of a principle than an agenda.

Is it just fine for me, as a landlord (say), to deny you housing because I think that you look like you might be trans? Or Black? Or Christian? Or a Jew?

Or to say that denying you housing because I think that you look like you might be trans is OK, but the other reasons are not valid?

The principled approach is to say that you can't do any of that.
