Anyone who would buy into Trump support for LGBT rights would also buy ugly shoes and bibles. What a farce! On another note, why are NONE of Trump’s family members present to support him in court??
how are the Log Cabin Republicans even relevant in this day and age?? What do they get in exchange for their support of this horrible human piece of garbage and his money grubbing gold digging piece of trash wife?? I mean, even Joe Scarborough talks about the country club crowd who are making bank with Biden at the helm, yet bashing him at the same time and throwing their support behind the orange dumbass!! Lord help us, are we that desperate as LGBTQIA people to peddle influence even from an odious source?? I just don't get it.
Never understood why--if there is no longer many of the more socially
liberal old-fashioned "country club GOP* "left -- that there is even a group of "Log Cabin Republicans" left. What are their policies about ANY issue? How / why are they LGBTQ aligned and what do they get in return for raising $ for the GOP of today? Just for the occasional job, like the very politically-specialized Ric Grenell who liaises with strongmen out of the country?
* I used to be a registered one of those even though a woman --when I thought there might be hope for professional women that are feminists, such as Condi Rice--for many years: I regained my self respect when Trump came on the scene, I left, and had never voted for him at all or for any GOP anywhere again. I just became too darned disgusted, appalled, and scared for the Country with Neo-Nazi's, anti-semites, Christian Nationalists, and conspiracists ascendant.
Let's see: Traitors, gluttons for punishment, sellouts, self loathing imbeciles, silly suckups, rats who sell you out when the rounding up begins...sure there is more clever descriptions but you get the gist. In my semi-closeted days, even I knew who not to come on to. Sure I had the self loathing bit because I was in the construction industry but at the time political I was not. These cretins need therapy for the ability to disregard conventional wisdom to avoid those that have absolutely no regard for you accept how much money you can fork over as a down payment to your future demise. I can only imagine the mental gymnastics to think that your cause is so reviled that you are shuffled off to the tearoom (oh, the irony)...
Hi ArniwB of all the comments I have read so far, yours resonated with me the most. I feel YOU, but just remember at the end of the day, we are all the same humans species with the same drives/passions, extroverts, introverts, mental defected & diverse sexualities ANYONE of US can be backstabbing craven, conniving evil devils LIKE a trump.
I hung out with some during my DC tenure in DC but that was when Republicans were an actual power sharing party. Mara Lago reeked of desperation to be relevant again...
I was a lobbyist in Tallahassee, Fl. during the 80's. I met several of these Log Cabin dudes many times. They were always supporting Republicans and I could never get a simple answer from them as to why. Anyway; one day several of these gentlemen approached me and asked me for a favor. They asked if I would check and see if there was a list of their names in a safe in the Speakers Office. I stated, "surly you are joking." They were not. I was friends with the Speaker, so I went and asked him. His reply was to laugh his ass off. He said tell those gentlemen "I am not a Republican." True story. As far as I am concerned these folks are nothing but dirt under the feet of all LGBTQIA people.
I looked up their web site out of curiosity as I think it’s a strange name. So this info is plainly on their site: “We also believe all Americans have the right to liberty and equality. We believe equality for LGBT Americans is in the finest tradition of the Republican Party. We educate our Party about why inclusion wins. Opposing LGBT equality is inconsistent with the GOP’s core principles of smaller government and personal freedom.”
Interesting that they word it that inclusion wins. That’s all they care about, winning. Are all the members actually LGBT?
Also why are we letting the Republican Party use the word Patriot to only mean them? I love this country, I’m not disloyal to it and pro Russian like some of them. Therefore why aren’t I a Patriot? We need to take that work back. Also the American flag. I have one I fly on holidays. Being a Democrat or a liberal or a progressive doesn’t mean you aren’t patriotic!
These Magacons have usurped the American flag (they need to fly the RUSSIAN and confederate flags alongside it, when I see it in front of homes that also have JB sucks and F Joe Biden signs posted.) It’s disgusting to see these “patriots’” hypocritical display of the American flag.
Maybe we need to fly American flags with Biden/Harris banners alongside.
Thank you for publicizing this incredibly small and silent event, and for pushing back on the inclusion of trans people in the description. It's worth mentioning that the characterization of this event as "outreach to LGBT and suburban women" makes more sense if you think about how many suburban women are likely to know at least one "out" gay or lesbian friend or family member, compared to even a decade ago, back in the world of Defense Of Marriage Act and Don't Ask Don't Tell.
The GOP has TOTALLY creeped any woman out with its post-Dobbs extremism, no matter her political affiliation, so reaching out (even at such a low level) to the Log Cabin Republican types is likely just an effort to keep as many suburban women on the bus as possible, for as long as possible.
This, clandestine fundraising, is the only way for Trump to grab monies from complicit queers who are willfully lying to themselves about some version of acceptance or approval from pandering conservatives.
Elitist hypocrites like Jenner have Nothing to lose, and they have no connectivity to the unconstitutional laws that turn trans people’s lives into punching bags.
Yep, this will go into the history books as another con, perpetrated along with “Infrastructure Month” (during his administration), and his meeting with union members (non-union) autoworkers in Ohio. And of course, who can forget his benefit for veterans during his first presidential campaign (in Lieu of a debate), which raised $6 million that never went to any veteran causes.

You noticed that too, huh?
Yes and Melania will be there with a phalanx of Log Cabins 🤪
Good luck with that. If he’s there, is it by his choice?
His girlfriend, I mean his daughter was the wise one. She and her wallet fled to Miami Beach a couple years ago.
how are the Log Cabin Republicans even relevant in this day and age?? What do they get in exchange for their support of this horrible human piece of garbage and his money grubbing gold digging piece of trash wife??

Hint: they weren't relevant before now either.
They're not relevant, simply a group of grifters.
Melania is a joke. She was probably paid to attend. I did not know that Bill White switched to Trump on election night. What a sleaze.
These quislings will be the first on the trains to the Trump Kkkamps for elimination.
Thanks Mike!
Melania is correct; the country DOES need to unite: AGAINST TFG and behind Dark Brandon!
What a crock of shit, LCR, really?!? They need to crawl back under the rock from whence they came.

Courage Dear, you woke up enough to avoid the descent into madness...

Wow, right in my front yard. Born and bred in Tallahassee!

☠️🤣🤮 Pathetic
I’m sure they’ll be welcomed at the RNC this summer. They could meet in a large closet.

Caitlyn Jenner can Fck Off.

Good times…:)
You mean to say Caitlin Jenner is pro-Trump? What?!
Always has been. Even when she was a he. Bruce/Caitlin in not an intellect. Just another dumb jockstrap actually
Jesus, these people. They'd be the first into Treblinka 2.0 if the maggats get real power - and yet...smh
Be best 🤦🏼♀️
