Eric Trump on Fox: "The LGBT community, they are incredible. I'm part of that community..."

What did he mean by this?

If he has kids, maybe one of his kids is 🏳️‍🌈. His support of the community isn’t going to sway voters.

There are handful of dumber than a box of rocks LGBT individuals who support Trump.

As for Eric being part of the community - I don't think so.

swore up and down that trump supported LBGQT community because he held up a Pride flag.

Nothing could dissuade him. Not even the list of judges trump promised to nominate that all have an anti- LBGQT record. Not trumps's derogatory statements, nothing. I knew he was a shithead, so I tried to convince him to vote indy, over trump. No-go. trump held up a flag...sigh.

He stopped talking to me when I said that a vote for trump was a hate vote for the LBGQT. To which he replied, I am gay, are you saying I hate myself? I said, Yup, if you vote for trump, you do. I wonder how he feels about his vote now?

I don’t even bother to alert anymore.

As for the dumber than a box of rocks LGBT individuals; sadly, I know a few who supported him in 2016. I’ve lost touch with them, so I’ve no idea if they feel the same. Frustrating.

..to counter daddy's evil rhetoric, especially towards transgender people?

It was, of course, a crock. But that wouldn't stop them from trying it on with him this time around.
