Apparently this landlord won't rent to anyone supporting Trump. Where are all the lefties who were wetting their pants over bakeries and photographers last year?

Someone should show up and say they are a gay Trump supporter. Or a Muslim Trump supporter, or a black Trump supporter, or a t*********r Trump supporter, or a native American Trump supporter, or better yet, a millennial Bernie supporter and if they don't give them a rent free apartment they will burn his house down!

Being a Trump supporter is not a protected class under the law so what he wants to do is completely legal.
However, I never recall being asked by anyone who I would v**e for before they gave me a lease so it is a bit strange.
I imagine he just wants to make a point. A silly point but hey that's what this site is pretty much all about.

Obviously there would be no way to know if a prospective tenant is a Trump supporter unless they were wearing a Trump button or claimed that they are a Trump supporter, so this is obviously just a rhetorical point the landlord is making and wouldn't likely result in any discrimination in the real world. It's therefore a non-issue. but it is amusing that it got some folks' underwear in a bunch.

OK then. I no longer will rent to supporters of Barrack Obama! Thanks! And I thought I might get sued for discrimination. So if I do get sued and lose, can I counter sue all you folks that are saying I am not being discriminatory?

No, you haven't got it. Liberals are "ALLOWED" to discriminate.

What? I thought liberals were the bastion of all individual freedoms? And here I always thought they were always saying they were so much better than all the rest of us. Was it all bulls**t? Please tell me I need to know!

Well they are super-people (in their eyes). If you make a true statement that doesn't fit in with their agenda, your statement automatically becomes a lie, and you, with the rest of the normal people, become i***ts, silly, moronic, or any number of gross insults that actually describe liberals perfectly. (Please see Frank's response above for proof.)
