LGBT community

Trump has been at odds with huge swathes of the population but has been quiet about gays lately-- until yesterday. Remember, NBC's 2016 exit polls showed that 14% of LGBTQ voters admitted they had cast ballots for Trump.

I'm going to start a new feature tonight. We all get way too many e-mails from candidates asking for money, right?. Many of them are created by over-priced, under-talented communications consultants with messaging straight from the two-legged jokes who work at the DCCC, DNC and DSCC.

On Sunday, The Advocate published a feature by Michael Keegan, president of People for the American Way, The Most Important LGBTQ Race in 2019 Is Danica Roem's.

Trump's mind by Chip ProserIn Tuesday night's debate, Mayo Pete mostly regurgitated his slick McKinsey-like, carefully-tested talking points. He didn't really have a memorable moment, but he did make a worthwhile point about Status Quo Joe: "We cannot have a vision that amounts to 'back to normal,' he said.

But he doesn't look gay. Well... he does "look" gay in a blue state way, but in red states? This is exactly what gay political closet cases look like. Meet Bill Sanderson, a state Rep from Dyer County, in northwest Tennessee, about 80 miles north of Memphis-- a godforsaken area where Tennessee, Arkansas and Missouri all meet. There aren't many Democrats in Dyer County anymore.

Monday, I responded to a tweet about some random guy primarying Jan Schakowsky (D-IL): "Jan Schakowsky is one of the best members of Congress & is one of the few who has NOT failed us." Notice what I didn't say: Jan Schawkowsky is one of the best female members of Congress" or even "Jan Schawkowsky is one of the best Jewish members of Congress"-- although she is both.

by NoahSometimes actions do speak louder than words. Sometimes words are enough. Trump has, from time to time, insincerely and superficially spoken and tweeted words favorable to the LGBTQ community, including some recent nice words (best words?) directed toward Gay Pride Month (For any republicans reading this, that's THIS month).

Aside from being Republicans serving in Congress, what do these 8 men and women have in common: Susan Brooks (R-IN), Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Brain Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Will Hurd (R-TX), John Katko (R-NY), Tom Reed (R-NY), Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Greg Walden (R-OR)?

Chances are Mike Pence might become president through Trump’s resignation, impeachment or arrest.A Pence presidency is a horrible possibility because every entity related to Trump is either bankrupt, closed or under investigation. Trump Casinos, Trump Golf Courses, The Trump Foundation, Trump University, the Trump Campaign Transition, the Trump Inaugural Committee and the Trump White House all are under some sort of cloud or investigation.

Forever beleaguered in finding enough red meat for his-- in ex-Senator Alfonse D’Amato's words-- right-wing whack-a-doodle base, Trump wants to pivot away from his embarrassing loss to Pelosi over the anti-Hispanic vanity-wall to crapping all over the LGBTQ community.
