    Trump "jokes" that Pence wants to hang gays?

    The alleged comments, originally reported by The New Yorker, highlight fears many LGBTQ advocates have about Vice President Mike Pence.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/trump-reportedly-jokes-about-mike-pence-wanting-hang-gays-n811086

    [Joke or no joke if true it's certainly an exercise in bad taste. As it is the LGBTQ community have ample evidence of what the Vice-President thinks of them and they consider him a threat. Its startling to think what kind of people Trump and Pence are and the nature of modern American Conservatism that put them in power. They are a threat to the country as a whole. What do you think?]

    This is why I have a gun. Granted, of the state was really out to get me I'm probably still gonna die, but I like that I have the means to give them hell on my way out.

    I sincerely doubt there will ever be another President in my lifetime whose brain isn't in sync with his mouth the way this man's brain is out of sync. What a stupid thing for him to say.

    I used to really respect Pence, but every day he puts up with this man's idiocy makes him fall in my estimate.

    Should inspire the left to defend Pence since they defend Muslims that throw gays off of roofs.

    Agreed on Trump's unfiltered mouth, but that's a major reason why he was elected. Yes, it's a stupid thing to say, but Trump has always been his own worst enemy. The more stupid crap he says, the less effectual he is as President.

    Pence is only doing his job as VP. I doubt he is as good or as bad as many want to make him out to be.

    The sad thing is most of the hardcore Trump supporters wouldn't mind if they actually did this.

    I'm not sure why you think the left likes wahhabism when antifa volunteers, most some flavor of communist or anarchist, formed the most dedicated units fighting ISIS with YPG's foreign volunteers.

    commmunists have been more effective fighting wahhabist terrorism in the middle east than the US military has, because even making a dent is better than America has done.

    also, why do you feel the need to deflect this instead of condemning the 'joke'?

    What percentage of American voters are "hardcore Trump supporters"?

    Locker room talk, parroting leftist thinking.

    It's funny because it's absurd.

    It seems to upset conservatives more than liberals.

    Why is this surprising to anyone? Trump already called a group of people who fund efforts to kill gays his "friends".

    Would those be the same Muslims who are providing the majority of fighters against ISIS?

    Does it? I've not seen much of anyone caring at all. That's why I was asking for specifics.
    Well that would hardly be "the left" the assertion was about would it? Anyway, it's still not the examples of anyone defending homosexuals being thrown from roofs.

    Trump is making America laugh again. Of course except for liberals who don't have a sense of humor and will all be on psychiatric medication by the end of his second term if they aren't already.

    So then what was your point behind idiotically claiming that fighting ISIS makes it okay to throw gays off roofs, when those Muslims fighting ISIS don’t do that?

    I wouldn't pass it by Pence to hang gays. He did try pushing gay conversion therapy in Indiana after all.

    Thanks for the laugh. Trump hasn't done anything to make American "great" again. Aside from trying to provoke North Korea for starters.
