No it won't be because of him due to that literally no one I've ever met reads this message board. However, I do believe Hillary is scum.

wait a minute, let me clarify some facts here and i dont mean to say that those countries didnt finance her but you have to know these facts

-Oman doesn't have laws against gays and they are not discriminated simply because they are all over that country and for your information the Sultan of Oman himself likes them very much

-Kuwait is one of the first countries in the region to have gays and i have never heard of one caught and put into prison, in fact they are all over the place and they brag about it, lots of them who went to east Asia to change their gender by having operations.

- UAE ( my country ) once tried to stop gays from spreading and caught bunch of them when the USA interfered and forced our government to release them from prison.

- Bahrain also has a lot of gays and i have never heard of any one of them taken to prison.

- Qatar, the same thing.

- Saudi Arabia , of course its prohibited over there but gays are there too .

so if those countries did donate it wasn't because of what was mentioned rather than personal interests

Well let's look at the UAE.

LGBT rights in the United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates includes the Emirates of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras al-Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain, Ajman, Fujairah and Sharjah. Sexual relations outside a traditional, heterosexual marriage are a crime. The death penalty applies for homosexuality. Punishments range from jail time, fines, deportation, and the death penalty. Adultery and fornication are also crimes, and a person convicted of homosexuality may also face charges of adultery if they have a spouse while having sexual relations with a person of the same sex. Homosexuals are strongly discouraged from traveling to the UAE including Dubai for any reason.

So who should I believe?

This may surprise you but to say any country was one of the first in a region to "have gays", or attempted to stop gays from "spreading", etc. Is kinda fallacious.

You realize there are and have been, since the dawn of man, gay men and women in every region humans have existed, right?

That aside, starred your post. Always very interesting to see perspective from someone who lives/has lived in the region, as I am assuming you do/have.

It is ironic,

In Article I of the U.S. Constitution, the Founders forbid members of government from receiving gifts or titles of nobility from foreign states for fear that the fledgling democracy would be corrupted by outside influence.

But that has never stopped the US politicians from cashing out on the money give away by foreign countries in the base of economic support.

If companies can set up Super PACs to get around campaign contribution limits, what other means might corporations both domestic and foreign find to funnel money into the political process? Especially when those foreign corporations have domestic subsidiaries.

Americans has lost their power over their politicians, political rats belong to private interest and their big pockets.

i never said that we were the first to have them , i was just pointing out that the funding wasnt because of what was mentioned in the article or what ever you call it .

and yes i am a local or you can call me a native Emirati since we are a minority and thats less than 12% of the population.

There is no Hillary that you can believe except the one that is yet to surface that openly admits she will lie, cheat and do pretty much anything for money and power.

Can't wait till a question like this is asked directly in the debates.

Guess we'll have to wait till the debates for answers cause she never gives press conferences with questions.
