Trump's Momentary Support of LGBT People During Campaign Was 'Empty Payback for a Political Favor'

[TexasTowelie]

Sean Spicer is out with a new book and unsurprisingly he reveal the then-candidate Donald Trump's momentary support of LGBT people during the campaign was, as PEOPLE magazine calls it, "nothing more than empty payback for a political favor."

Why was Trump so focused on the LGBTQ community for about a nanosecond during the 2016 campaign and why did he promise to "do everything" in his power "to protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology"?

Trump needed one last delegate's vote to win the GOP nomination.

And once again, LGBT people were used. A means to an end.

One last name stood in the way between Trump and the nomination, according to Spicer: Washington, D.C. GOP delegate Robert Sinners.

4. A good analogy would be Mussolini and Jews

I do not believe Trump had any ideological hatred of gays, his track record as a businessman shows nothing of the sort.

Likewise, Mussolini on his way up had some support from Jews and never said they were racially un-Italian or anything of the kind.

But when it came to what was politically expedient ... you know the rest.
