Congratulations for surviving the nasty hate. My brother and husband just celebrated 25 years together.

I support you in running for president. I saw footage of your coming out story and was very moved by it. The fact that you knew you didn’t want to go through life without love was such an important realization. It shows emotional intelligence. You have everything you need to be president especially a supportive spouse. Thank you for your service to our country and to the LGBTQAI Community. You are an inspiration to me and many others. Sending love and light and blessings to you and yours.

A man who ran a midsized American city, served in Afghanistan, and can discuss infrastructure policy in four languages. Why exactly is he not already the standard by which candidates are measured?

I had a trans daughter. Why anyone’s gender or sexual preferences are anyone else’s business is beyond me. Some straight men and women have done unspeakable things, including our president, yet they think they have a right to judge others. Wishing your son a life of love and happiness.

He hasn't aged at all! Whereas you, Pete, finally look older than 20.

He looks older because of the stress of trying to do the right thing in this political environment.

I’m sorry but I just can’t relate to a guy who can copulate another man’s johnson. I have guy friends that I appreciate immensely. But to stick my…into their…never comes to mind.

You Americans are as funny as you are perdicktalbe. I don’t care who is satisfying whom. I just wanted to wind you,?and boy/girl/trany/mutation did I. I would opine you should be concerned with the genius who has as your master and chief. A box cutter on the reflection pool? You should reflect on that. Enjoy your day “….the blurst of times.”

Dianne, is it true that the current Australian Prime Minister has been pushing for any criticism of Israel to be deemed an offence?

Making expressing an opinion an offence is fascism, pure and simple
