Good question

[rah]

The answer would be no, but I'm reasonably sure that it did say Democrat which is probably why most of the people voted that way.

Just like the last presidential election. Next to Trumps name it said Republican and not ***** grabbing asshat. Most voted for him since it said Republican. (Oh ok, it was because it said not Hillary )

[Kidlicious]

Most people voted for Trump because they know who he is and that he is cisgender white evangelical male. I did not know that democrats have no idea who they are voting for.

[-Jrabbit]

Trump identifies as Presbyterian. He has attended an Episcopal church this past Easter. It's pretty clear he's not an evangelical.
Personally, I don't think he gives religion a second thought outside of how it can benefit him politically.

[self biased]

There are stupid,bad republicans, but we can't ignore the fact that we are engaged in culture war, and radical leftist, unamerican ideology is driving it. Maybe the Democrat is a better candidate but he is still transgender, and I don't believe that's coincidental

if you consider the idea of being nice to someone who is transgender 'radical' and 'un-American,' or if you feel that treating transgender people as human beings somehow threatens your way of life via some kind of conspiracy, maybe that's an indication that you should re-evaluate your thoughts and beliefs.

Considering how many Trump-Voters regret voting for him, I doubt that they knew who he is.

I guess the reason for voting for him in many/most cases rather was a mix of gullibility (enough gullibility to believe his election promises) and only knowing the persona he represents in his TV Show ("The Apprentice") but not knowing enough about the "real Donald Trump" behind the TV persona (like the Donald Trump who was behind the fake "Trump university", the Donald Trump who boasted about ***** Grabbing, the Donald Trump about which a Nobel Price in the 80s said, that he is a "self inflated individual with a short attention span" ... and so on)

My only experience with such a person was on the bus. When they got on everyone stopped talking. We all just pretended as though the person wasn't a man in a dress. I treated him like everyone else, just like everyone on the bus.

He apologized for that comment and it's not even a big deal. And I even heard on NPR a caller accuse him of being an admitted sexual predator, and NPR didn't even correct them. And NPR is supposed to be unbiased.

He's a great president, and history will be the judge. One thing is for sure, we would not know what a bunch of backstabbers the Republican establishment is if we didn't elect him.

Well, IIRC there are multiple women who accuse him of not only talking about ***** grabbing, but actually doing so

... history will be the judge ...

That's something where we definitely agree.
Just our assumptions about historys verdict are diametrically opposite

I saw one of those accusors on TV, not even close to being believable. If people are going to lie about him on NPR they are going to do it elsewhere. All of this says everything about the left, not the president.

[ZEE]

I must say, I am extremely disappointed by the GOP so far. I used my great demonic influences to help give them all this powar, and after I succeeded, they completely fell apart and got exposed.

See if I evar ask my 'friends' to help THEM again.

What people look like isn't the issue. Now people who don't vote for transgender people are going are going to be called transphobic. In the future a tyranny is going to lose an election and blame it on transphobic white cisgenderd males.

Kid, if you're getting called transphobic it's because you actually are a bigot, as demonstrated in this thread.

Transphobic is another word that idiots use. Almost all transgender people have mental illness. I only wish for them to be well.

oh, and I don't give 2 cents about what you think of me.

[giblets]

Most actual psychologists don't agree with you.

Well, the treatment for transgendered people is hormone therapy together with a gender reassignment surgery ... so they can live as the gender they want to (with some things missing, of course, like never being able to get pregnant/father children).
AFAIK most transgenders, after undergoing gender reassignment surgery, live happy productive lifes (with some exceptions, however, for example Daniel Bunten -> Danielle Bunten-Berry (who was most notably known from the 80s as the creator of "M.U.L.E." and "Seven cities of gold") ... she finally regretted her gender reassignment surgery and wished she had, instead, just lived a more feminine life in a male body)

Actually ALL humans have some form of mental illness to some degree. Everyone on this planet is insane, the trick is to embrace the insanity, let it fire you. Cool Aid is yummy, especially with battery acid, i ate a pencil. Lead poisoning is good for you.
