To be clear, Trump has publicly come out both against gay marriage and against anti-discrimination laws. Sure, that's fairly mainstream as of ten years ago, but it's hardly "pro LGBT." It's weird to me to characterize the candidate's willingness to ban people who might potentially be more anti-gay than the prior as a pro-LGBT position, especially in comparison to a candidate who supports laws that actually advance and protect gay rights. (Anyway, what about gay immigrants from Muslim countries? Surely those coming from countries with repressive laws are most deserving of admission, no?) In your reply, you sort of beat around this bush, I think. Yes, you can paint Trump a lot of ways (though I think much of that owes to what the man himself says), and yes, immigrants from conservative religious societies may be less prone to support liberal values, but the candidate himself also does not support those values. He opposes gay marriage. He opposes anti-discrimination legislation. http://www.hrc.org/2016RepublicanFacts/donald-trump-opposes-.. http://www.hrc.org/2016RepublicanFacts/donald-trump-opposes-.... Surely the candidate's own statements on policy matter, don't they?
