Just for the record. I find it strange and unusual that your online persona picture is a strange and unusual pillow guy.   Also, that you actually care enough about a stranger named Patended Phil to track who he is voting for...

See my above post.

I honestly don’t know.  Always thought it was a real Mike Lindell pic.  But now that I look at, seems to be a spoof.  Good pickup.

Trump on LGBTQ Rights: Rolling Back Protections and Criminalizing Gender Nonconformity

Donald Trump’s administration initiated a sustained, years-long effort to erase protections for LGBTQ people. This included an effort to “define ‘transgender’ out of existence,” erode protections for transgender students and workers, and weaken access to gender-affirming health care that most transgender people already struggled to access.

Trump on LGBTQ Rights

The Facts: 

Trump has promised that, if reelected, his administration will rescind federal policies that prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, and will assert that federal civil rights laws don’t cover anti-LGBTQ discrimination. In addition to rolling back existing protections, a second Trump administration will proactively mandate discrimination by the federal government wherever it can. Lastly, and perhaps most ominously, if Trump returns to the White House, we expect his administration to use federal law – including laws meant to safeguard civil rights – as a cudgel to override critical state-level protections for transgender students and to force state and local governments, as well as private organizations, to allow or even perpetuate discrimination

Why It Matters: 

A second Trump administration would strip LGBTQ people of protections against discrimination in many contexts, including employment, housing, education, health care, and a range of federal government programs. The Trump administration’s proposed policies would ban transgender people from serving openly in the armed forces and block gender-affirming medical care for transgender people enrolled in federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare. The effects of these cruel – and unconstitutional – discrimination efforts would be devastating, as thousands of transgender people would immediately lose access to needed medical care and the right to live freely without fear. In essence, a potential second Trump administration would seek to erase transgender people from public life entirely by using federal laws – including obscenity laws – to criminalize gender nonconformity.

As do most of the LGBQ community, Trump sees the mentally ill and violent terrorist T’s as a threat to all the advancements the others have made

About 80% of the  T community just wants to go about life anonymously and just live their lives. It’s the 20% that bings the crazy and negative attention. The whole community loves pointing fingers within. The lezzies don’t like the gay men , the gay men aren’t fond of the lezzies and especially the baby dykes.. The Ts seem to be on an island with their whack job variants

I’m an ex-liberal who did a #WalkAway from the Democrat Party and I am about 7 years clear of leftism.

So, like Trump and everyone he surrounds himself with, this dude is just an opportunist trying to increase his notoriety and bank balance. Who'da thunk it?

Mike Harlow is part of the Walk Away movement which has had little success in encouraging people to leave the Democratic Party:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WalkAway_campaign

The #WalkAway campaign is a social-media campaign that was launched ahead of the United States 2018 mid-term elections with the stated purpose of encouraging voters to leave the Democratic Party. The campaign, which also organized events to support Donald Trump, was noted and criticized  for its astroturfing methods and the claim that there was a popular movement of people leaving the party.

In 2021, the group's founder, Brandon Straka, a hairstylist from New York City, was charged with and convicted of participating in the 2021 United States Capitol attack. Following this, the group's Facebook page, which had more than half a million followers, was closed for violations of the site's terms of service.

LOL. I'm sure Elon has nothing to gain by hitching himself to Trump. Richest dude in the world definitely not looking out for himself and his assets. Nope. Elon's just a patriot. That wasn't born here. Who illegally overstayed his visa. Probably a bad hombre, like all the other illegals.

So you are mocking people's valid beliefs, you use the word "furor" to describe the conservative stance, and then you say you don't care after ranting about Musk? 

If you don't care, why say anything at all?

If Elon was only interested in his bottom line he would sit it out. Obviously , as evidenced by his purchase of twitter, he’s not. Count ten like momma said.

Do I have to be passionate about a subject before offering a sarcastic post? I wasn't aware of that rule. You might wanna spread the word to the rest of the GC. Seems as though there's probably a lot of unnecessary posting going on. This should be nipped in the bud.

fu·ror

an outbreak of public anger or excitement.

 

Seems as though your issue is with the definition of this word, which was used properly in context. Or are you trying to say that there is not a furor from MAGA over immigration?

 

Or are you misunderstanding this furor for Fuhrer?  Either way, you seem as though you are confused. I am not, and stand by what I said.

That's a bold statement given you are not privy to my thought processes. But okay, opinion noted. I disagree. You can look through this forum for sentiments from conservatives along the lines of "deport them all now." The lack of thought required to feel that way seems like it is properly described using the word furor. 

This is gonna be a long day if this is the type of exchange we're having early on. I'm usually in-n-out of here several times daily, but today I'll have browser windows open all day for the election, one of them for the hallowed GC. Arguing over the subjective use of a word is not worth the time on this sacrosanct day.
