I'm ready to move this to Lean D.
Hard to imagine a Cooper/Trump ticket-splitter though...
Trump hasn't really been pandering to the anti-trans folks like McCrory has.
Yes, he's always been weirdly pro-LGBT considering how he speaks about pretty much all other minority groups on a daily basis. I think the gay vote this year will be at its most R since before DOMA and Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
I wonder if this is a function of his New York roots. I imagine in Trump's circles he actually has quite a few gay friends. That, or its just an issue that doesn't get him passionate.
