Where are the people saying that the republicans can't get away with being anti-lgbt anymore? I'd love to see them comment on this.

Because our Lord Jesus Christ hates gays
Seriously, fuck anyone who thinks discrimination is some laudable thing.

Well, see, it turns out being smug on twitter has absolutely no effect on the real world.

[quote]Hoyer silenced the chamber and called for a parliamentary inquiry to find out how people switched their votes on an amendment that, until just moments before, looked like it would pass. [B]Under House rules, once the speaker asks, "Does anyone wish to change their vote?" lawmakers are supposed to go to the front of the podium to change their votes.
But the speaker, however, never said that phrase during the LGBT ballot, keeping the vote open for longer than the standard two-minute voting block.
[/B]
Hoyer argued that Ryan was tossing chamber rules aside and said the people who changed their votes should have the courage to step forward.[/quote]

Hey FP conservatives who voted for this red government, ready to say it to my face that you don't care about my rights despite being an American citizen?
I offer now as a chance to admit to it.

Where's Komodo when you really need him.
This happened almost half a year ago. At least, according to the post date.
And so it begins.

Yes, I don't give a single damn about any of your rights.

I wonder where all those people are who were saying "Why are people concerned about Donald Trump and his effect on lgbt people."
I wonder if they have little soundproof safe rooms when something comes up that makes them look like idiots so they can retreat and wait until they can shitpost again about how what people are really concerned about are 'death camps' and other hyperbolic bullshit like that.
Yup this is old.

Trump may have muscled in to being the republican party's nominee and now president, but I don't think it's fair to pin this on Trump, it's not something he called for. Totally fair to say that the republican party has real problems with supporting LGBT though, this is ridiculous
