This is in addition to my last post about what a vote for trump really means. It’s time to clear the air about what LGBTQ+ protections have changed under Trump and his administration... and NO, appointing a controversial 1st cabinet level position to openly gay, Richard Grenell, doesn’t count as progress when you zoom out and look at how the Trump Administration has rolled back line after line after line of direct protection to the queer community under @barackobama and his administration. Head to the last picture to read how Trumps administration claims they were just upholding the law...so sorry #45, but the #supremecourt, lead by your very own Neil Gorsuch, voted that because of title VII of the Civil Rights Act, “it is impossible to discriminate against a person for being homosexual or transgender without discriminating against that person based on sex...” So again, I will say, if you love your gay friends, your lesbian niece, your queer cousin, your trans granddaughter, your pansexual brother, or your non-binary best friend, than you can’t vote for Trump and still call that love. If you zoom out from him appointing 5 open gay people to cabinet level positions, everything else he’s done is in direct violation of love! And if you’ve never had to think about who is president, and how they could change your rights as a human being, it’s because you’ve likely lived a life of privilege. Honour that privilege and vote for the people who want everyone to share in that privilege. Which means, after you VOTE for @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris , continuing voting up and down the ticket. In order for real stability & protections for queer people, we need The Equality Act, passed by congress last year, to be brought to the senate floor in order to pass it into law. Let’s keep the House, flip the senate, and win the Whitehouse. Get out and VOTE!!
