Trump Opposes UN Resolution

The hell?
Also, why the hell are none of the mainstream news networks covering this?

Thankfully, the resolution passed.

Fake news says nothing about Trump opposing it.

He's commander in chief. I know there's a whole slew of other people here to make the decision as well, but he has the most influence over them. If he really wanted to, he could've made the US vote for the resolution rather than against.

America is such a backwards country. 🙁

As is England. You idiots drive on the wrong side of the road.

America drives on the right, England drives on the left. Just another reason we are better then England.

So I know people make fun of the blaze and I am not saying this is accurate, but this gives some potential context:

Why the US voted against the resolution on the death penalty at Human Rights Council

"“We voted against that resolution because of broader concerns with the resolution’s approach in condemning the death penalty in all circumstances, and it called for the abolition of the death penalty altogether,” Nauert told reporters. “We had hoped for a balanced and inclusive resolution that would better reflect the positions of states that continue to apply the death penalty lawfully, as the United States does.”

If that is true I find it highly irresponsible how some in the media framed this.

The council was concearned with LGBT rights specifically, and perhaps religious rights if I've heard correctly(?), so no it's not just abolishing the death penalty altogether, it's abolishing it under specific circumstances that target one's freedom.

Perfectly reasonable to abolish, in my opinion.

Well wait, either it was or wasn't about abolishing the death penalty all together. If it wasn't, why oppose it? Because we are cackling supervillains?

The resolution apparently:
