The Humane Society WARNS Trump Presidency "A Threat To Animals Everywhere"

[En_Sabah_Nur 9,366]

 

"Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is such a polarizing figure that he’s inspired a record-breaking number of news outlets and several Republican public figures to back a Democrat for the first time — or to make their first endorsements.

Now, even America’s animals are breaking their silence to voice opposition to Trump.

Okay, not really the animals themselves. But last week, the lobbying arm of the nation’s most prominent animal welfare group, the Humane Society, broke with its own tradition of not making endorsements by coming out in support of Democrat Hillary Clinton and releasing an attack ad against Trump, calling him “a threat to animals everywhere.”

Unsurprisingly, the ad features the most familiar — and derided — animal-related image associated with Trump: a photo of his sons hoisting the carcass of a leopard they hunted in Africa. It also takes aim at Forrest Lucas, an oil tycoon who founded a farmers’ advocacy group that fights animal rights organizations; and Bruce Rastetter, an Iowa agribusiness entrepreneur. Both are on Trump’s agricultural advisory committee and are among “a who’s who of zealous anti-animal welfare activists” allied with the candidate, according to Humane Society Legislative Fund President Michael Markarian.

Trump “has assembled a team advisors and financial supporters tied in with trophy hunting, puppy mills, factory farming, horse slaughter, and other abusive industries,” Markarian wrote in a blog post announcing the Clinton endorsement.

The president, Markarian noted, has influence over several agencies that create policies that affect animals, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the Bureau of Land Management. Donald Trump Jr., who is seen holding up a severed elephant tail in the Humane Society ad, has expressed interest in joining the Department of the Interior."

That's absurd, it's not like Hillary Clinton came out against major animal abuse. Has she come out against factory farms? Fur farms? Circuses? No. She's not a vegan, so she kills plenty of animals. Donald is no worse on this issue.

honestly though, I mean I'm not saying I hope it happens, I can't wish death on anyone.. but I wouldn't be surprised, especially if the elite doesn't want him to become president.

Well NOTHING is ever good enough for a Vegan typically, they are always ranting & raving about something!  No matter how progressive someone views are on animals...  SMH

Hillary's views aren't progressive on animals. She doesn't stand up against industrial animal abuse.

Of course they're not usually satisfied because meat eating people abuse animals out of pure selfishness. Unless the animal abuse stops, the people against it aren't gonna be okay with it.

People have been eating meat since the dawn of time/homo-erectus & you just expect everyone on the planet to just up & say okay - after millions of years of eating meet, we all just need to stop it now!
