WTF? Gay GOP Group's President Still Defends Trump As ‘Leader’ On Queer Rights

Delegates at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Cleveland, Ohio, have crafted the most anti-LGBT platform in history ― a platform the Log Cabin Republicans, the most well-known gay GOP group, even condemned in an ad. And Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has chosen anti-LGBT Gov. Mike Pence of Indiana as his running mate, a man who signed an extreme, discriminatory Religious Freedom Restoration Act last year.

Nonetheless, Log Cabin Republican president Gregory T. Angelo, in an interview with me on SiriusXM Progress at the RNC this week, still characterized Trump as a “leader” on LGBT rights.
