A survey conducted in August in the US shows that a bigger number of Americans believe the Trump administration is hurting the country’s gay agenda.
Which is a shift in the US, a massive shift, showing the Trump government moving away from the ultra-liberal thinking of the Barack Obama administration.
Under Obama, the gay agenda was given full support.
The survey conducted by the PRRI says Americans are about four times as likely to say that the Trump administration’s policies are hurting (34 percent) gay and lesbian people, rather than helping (ninepercent). While 42 percent say his policies are not having any effect on gay and lesbian people.Opinions about the impact of the Trump administration’s policies on transgender people are nearlyidentical: 36 percent say Trump’s policies are hurting transgender people; eight percent say they are helping; and 41 percent say they are having no effect.
But a larger number of Republican supporters believe Trump policies are harming gays.
“While 61 percent of Democrats believe Trump’s policies are harming gay and lesbian Americans, just nine percent of Republicans share this view.
“More than twice as many Republicans (19 percent) believe Trump’s policies are helping gay and lesbian Americans. Partisan views about the impact on transgender Americans follow this same pattern.”
This is indicative of a no-blanket approval of the gay agenda even in the USA. Countries, where the gay movement is attempting to stir the still waters should take heed.
However, a large majority (71 percent) of Americans support laws protecting LGBT Americans from discriminations.They believe there should be more laws to protect the weaker ones in employment, housing, or public accommodations—and just 22 percent of the public opposes these laws.
A nearly identical percentage of Americans supported such protections in 2015, and just 25 percent were opposed.
Meanwhile, the a majority of Americans continue to see Trump unfavorably.
Fifty-three percent of Americans express an unfavorable opinion of Trump, while roughly four in ten (41percent) Americans view the president positively.
Public views of Trump have remained quite stable since his inauguration when 52 percent of Americans said they had an unfavourable view of Trump, and 43 percent said they viewed him positively.
White evangelical Protestants remain among Trump’s most fervent supports; 73 percent hold a favorable view of him.
