The central question is whether a baker has the right to refuse service to someone, based on any discriminatory factor, including race, religion, politics, or anything else. Does it matter if the customer is black, gay, jewish, pro-Trump, whatever? It's hard to believe the customer can't find somebody else to bake the cake or bake one him/herself. So where's the harm? What's the big deal? Go get your cake somewhere else, and eat it too.
Again, the issue is, does a bakery count as a public accommodation?
All states have laws protecting people from discrimination based on race.
Most states have laws protecting people based on discrimination based on sexual orientation.
States do not have laws protecting people from discrimination based on political views.
