You can tell her doesn't like saying "lgbtq" je lools so disgusted whenever he does

[loulepoulet]

Me: Donald Trump defending lgbt ?
Me: Donald Trump who does something good?!
Me: It is a fake..

[giantgrass]

Trump was talking about protecting LGBT people from Muslim extremists

[kyndramarlene]

He’s lying obviously did you hear his new law

[kadenstructures_ks]

Smh, he cant even get the term right!!

[cookieboix]

Im lesbian I just want people to stop hating ON LGBTQ it's not right please let us live free...

[thedarkprince]

I feel like people in the comment section are not realizing the purpose of this video. He made these promises and he backtrack on these promises

[alexnunez]

He said he would protect the LGBTQ+ community and look what he has done. If the transgenders want to to serve in the military he should let them. They want to fight for our country as much as a straight person. They shouldn't be denied the opportunity.

[heartbeat]

he can't even say 'LGBTQ' correctly

[lillietracy]

I know I'm only 11, but thos isn't right. I feel like he is just saying he's with it to get the "vote" of people, meaning to have more people in favor for him. I myself am bisexual, and I think this could vary well end in a Impeachment

[theoutsiderspost]

I do not care who serves this country. Who you have in bed, your background, etc. if you can fight when the time comes. That is what matters.

[Saltyoven]

you know this now means people can pretend to be lgbt to get out of military service.

[isaach]

Whatever happened to the American dream? Where every individual was promised equal rights to success and great opportunities?

THE MOST INCREDIBLE PRESIDENT OF OUR TIME 💙💙💙

[swordoflight]

He deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.

[WarringHostMakinSatanToast]

Father God, I receive Your will Your way in the U.S. Government EVERY DAY.  Amen.

Donald Trump is amazing for supporting me and the LBGTQ community

America has lowered its family values so much. Like the day of Lot.
