Trump would have had them speed it up.

Since Trump has been a strong advocate for gay people his whole life, where did you get that weird idea?

Gay and trans are not the same. I’m not going to trod through a bunch of vague accusations.

Specifically, where has threatened to execute gay people ? That is your claim.

Good job not reading any of the links and just seeing the word 'trans' in one of them and assuming it was all about trans rights.

Good job for linking bombing and making a baseless claim.

When has Trump ever threatened as you claimed ?

Three links is not 'link bombing.'

And I see no reason to answer your question if you can't look at the links that show you're wrong about Trump. Entirely.

It isn’t my job to dig through pages of propaganda to try to find your claim.

You made the claim, it’s your job to clearly cite it.

I read through it and couldn’t find once where Trump said let’s execute the gays or anything of that nature.

You clearly did not read through it because you thought it was all about trans issues.

I never made that claim but that is the bulk of the link bomb. So once again, can you specifically cite your claim. Otherwise, I’ll just chalk you being incorrect as always.

First of all, not only did you make that claim, but you admitted you didn't read the links:

Gay and trans are not the same. I’m not going to trod through a bunch of vague accusations.

Secondly, three links is still not a link bomb.

Thirdly, civility is the rule here, so I would advise you not to make personal attacks.

I’m not making a personal attack. I’m asking you to specifically to back up your claim which you refuse. That means your claim is false since you can’t back it up. As I said I perused through the link bomb and didn’t see anything to backup up your claim. I on the other hand provided a cite that did backup my claim. So I’m leave it at that.

This was a personal attack.

Otherwise, I’ll just chalk you being incorrect as always.

I do not moderate my own discussions, but I am going to be watching you from now on to make sure you do not make such attacks towards others.

If you wish to argue with me that it was not a personal attack, I guess you'll be surprised when your post gets deleted when it happens again with someone else.

I hope this is clear.
