Me too. I'd like to have made this mistake.

[...] Also, can someone tell me wtf "queer" means?
wikipedia said:Queer is an umbrella term for sexual and gender minorities who are not heterosexual [...] Originally meaning "strange" or "peculiar", queer came to be used pejoratively against those with same-sex desires or relationships in the late 19th century. Beginning in the late 1980s, queer scholars and activists began to reclaim the word to establish community and assert an identity distinct from the gay identity.[...]

Kicking transgender people out of the military has been seen as something against the LGBTQ community.LeVeL said:[...]Short or bribing SCOTUS to overturn gay marriage, idk what Trump can do to against the gays.
President Trump mistakenly referred to the governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands as its "president" during a speech Friday.
Trump was addressing a gathering of religious conservatives in Washington, D.C., when he turned to tout the federal response to several U.S. states and territories hit by hurricanes in recent months.
"And I will tell you, I left Texas, and I left Florida, and I left Louisiana and I went to Puerto Rico, and I met with the president of the Virgin Islands," Trump told those gathered for the Values Voter Summit.
"These are people that are incredible people. They've suffered gravely, and we'll be there. We're going to be there," he added.
Trump was apparently referring to Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp when he mentioned the "president" of the U.S. territory, who is Trump himself.
The White House later released an official transcript of the speech, striking out Trump's reference to the Virgin Islands' "president" and noting he was referring to its "governor."
US President Donald Trump will end subsidies to health insurance providers designed to help low income households, as he continues his attempts to dismantle Obamacare.
The White House announced the move hours after Mr Trump signed an executive order allowing the sale of health insurance plans which are exempt from some of the law's regulations.
The guy doesn't even know all the territories and people he is a president of! A couple of weeks ago, I suspected that he didn't really realize that Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, but I didn't say anything. Now, I'm getting a feeling my suspicion was accurate.
Well, clearly the President of the Virgin Islands is a Fucking Moron?.

Trump boasts about plunging stock prices after his healthcare announcement. What president is proud of taking heathcare and SNAP away from the poor and sending the market into chaos?
You are aware that the ACA was originally a GOP plan, right?
