Trump: Transgenders can use any bathroom

Unbelievable for anyone else but Trump.

Trump: Transgender people can use whatever bathroom they want

"There have been very few complaints the way it is. People go. They use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate," Trump said. "There has been so little trouble. And the problem with what happened in North Carolina is the strife and the economic -- I mean, the economic punishment that they're taking."

@benshapiro: Trump says it's "pure political correctness" to put Tubman on the $20 but transgenders should use whatever bathroom they want. Vomit.

Essentially Trump is right.
But, hear me out.
First let's review the NC fiasco.
Charlotte decides to make bathrooms open to whoever.
NC passes a law that says local governments cannot decide that issue.
Paypal pulls out of opening a new facility in Charlotte!
If Charlotte had left it alone and not passed their law, Paypal would still be coming.
Stupid Charlotte.
Now, back on Trump.
I grew up with a Transgender person.
They were born with both sets of organs.
Leslie was operating as a boy for the entire time I knew him, but, he was definitely a feminine type of boy.
By this I refer to his mannerisms and body type, nothing else.
Now, what bathroom should he use?
Male, because that was what he was portraying.
What if someone similar to him grew up as a girl?
Would it be ok for them to use a female bathroom, even though they had male (and female) parts?
These laws/regulations should be left alone.

I will never vote for him. And it's looking like he is running a stealth inside 3rd party.

Steve Deace wrote a great article in January about Trump:

Deace: Donald Trump a Typical New York City Liberal Then and Now

Here’s the bottom line—there’s not a single issue on which Trump is a credible conservative.

Not. A. Single. One.

Trump was a typical New York City liberal back in 1999, and he’s still a typical New York City liberal now.

Go into the appropriate bathroom that matches your pipes. It's a no-brainer.

So, if you are born with both, where do you go?

No surprise here.

Nice story about your friend, but that is a very very small fraction and not who the liberals and lgbtq are trying to help.

This is about perverts who are either male or female - period - who want to the opposite sex's bathroom.

They want gender neutral.

Most have surgery as a child to correct that. Not the issue. The issue is the push for gender neutral pervs to use a different bathroom.

I agree with you about the crusade currently underway, however the issue is a little more nuanced then "just use the bathroom the matches your plumbing".

From what I have seen .3% of the population is trans.
