I realize that this is the shitty talking point used by people trying to defend or deflect attention away from the actions of people who actually are adamantly anti-gay as opposed to those who "evolved" on the position, as they say. Being a gay man myself, my stance is that it's always better late than never, and I have older family members who also took a while to come to terms with it. Being slow to come around on an issue is different than picking one of the most radically anti-gay politicians in the nation as a running mate, a man that Trump himself has admitted would have gay people hanged if he had his way.
Late on marriage equality support vs. attempting unnecessary ban on trans people in military and picking a VP who he claims wants to exterminate gays. HMMM. Which is worse? Oh, how could anyone ever tell when they're so close? "Same thing, both sides," right?
I realize that you are a target of and proponent of fake news. Try to educate yourself about that issue from a source other than Trump's greasy mouth.

Don't even. She wasn't my first choice, but just because my first choice wasn't an option doesn't mean that I'll pick the shit sandwich when given the choice between that and grilled cheese. You are trying to absolve people who support an authoritarian candidate with literally no political experience, and the result is unprecedented corruption (which is saying a lot in this country), a potential international incident at any time because he doesn't know how to put his toys down and stop trolling on Twitter, and putting Wall Street fat cats in his administration after bitching about Hillary giving a speech to those kinds of people.
Hillary Clinton, even taking her worst faults into consideration, did not have any baggage even remotely comparable to this.

You do realize Hillary Clinton is against gay people and only said she liked gays to get elected right?

You do realize Hillary is just as big of a "bully" as trump is? She laughed about getting a rapist off on charges.

So don't go off on this high and mighty shit when all candidates are shit. When both the left and right have real shit ideals.
