7. Voting rights will be set back decades
This also goes along with the Supreme Court, because they’ll have the judicial power to strip away even more of the Voting Rights Act. A Trump presidency combined with GOP control of Congress is sure to empower Republicans to pass legislation that will blatantly disenfranchise voters (especially minorities), making it all but impossible for anyone but Republicans to win many of our elections.
8. Freedom of the press is curtailed— a First Amendment right.
In case you haven’t noticed, Trump kind of openly despises the media. And while we do have freedom of the press in America, there are plenty of ways US President Donald Trump has found ways to lawfully suppress the press, like excluding certain members of the press from his conferences. Which, hey, probably rings a bell if you’re Jorge Ramos.
9. No more marriage equality
The burdens of marriage — an expensive ceremony, name-changing drama and the potential for divorce — have been lifted off LGBTQ communities’ shoulders once and for all thanks to US President Donald Trump, who fulfilled his promise to overturn marriage equality.Without the tulle-lined burden of marriage, gays are able to fulfill their next duties: We’ve been drafted to work in Trump’s official work camps where we make Trump-themed memorabilia!
