No... What the president of the US does can not be thrown out because the other candidate in the election - which ceased to matter as soon as it ended - did this, that or the other.
I think the point @InnocentBystander is trying to make here is that Hillary, Obama and others have not been "attacked" in this way the same way Trump has, and possibly wouldn't be - at least in the same manner - if they did the same thing as Trump in this instance.
They have some antiquated views, but they're hardly a hate group.
Just from what you quoted there, I tend to agree. I disagree with some of the values (anyone should marry anyone, for instance), but there's nothing wrong with the group trying to promote that view and persuade others that their outlook on the matter is correct. Not a hate group; they're allowed to have their own values and preach them, so as as they do so legally.
EDIT: On a side note, this article is kind of hap-hazard in its writing.
The event, which counts religious extremists, white supremacists, and far-right activists among its attendants...
I think this is a large assumption, and the article provides no evidence that any of this is true. I think in this case The Independent is just lumping several groups together, classifying them all as "right" and just running with it. I find it to be sloppy at best and outright lies at worst.
