George Takei @GeorgeTakei
Eric Trump saying hes part of the LGBT community is like me saying Im part of the fantasy football community. I might think I know what a tight end and a wide receiver are, but I would be sorely mistaken.

(6,648 posts)"Wide receiver" = 1
"tight end" = 2
"sorely" = 3
What am I missing?

soldierant
(6,648 posts)I was reading the first phrase as a "double and the second phrase as a "double, multiplying them and getting fourple, except that didn't work, because the last one would make it a fifple.

Eric Trump: "The LGBT community, they are incredible. And you should see how they come out in full force for my father every single day. I'm part of that community, and we love the man."

(1,999 posts)because I was dying to see the reaction shot from the other Fauxsters.
Probably had to go to the Eric close-up to cut away from a spit-take by one of the other talking heads...

(6,703 posts)POTUS: we're behind in the polls, we need more votes, Eric, you're not married, you'll be the gay one.
Eric: again? why me?
Don Jr.: But dad, I want to be something too. I'm tired of being the "mature" one. Ivanka gets to be the princess, I want to be the gay one.
POTUS: It's settled, Eric, you're the gay one. Pass the roast immigrant ribs, They're really good tonight, must be all that peppery food they eat.
I'm sorry about this whole post.,

(4,261 posts)do not want treacherous slug-maggot. And if Eric is part of the 'community' He should begin to learn the pain his father has put the USA members through directly and the rest in the world indirectly through hos policies and attitudes.

Now let's check in with Dan Quayle's spelling of LGBT...what's that? He wants to buy WHICH vowel?

(2,227 posts)Eric is TRANSEXUAL.
He is Caitlan's BFF. (my apologies to Caitlan for that slander, but Caitlan is still republican, as far as I know, therefore fair game)
(Eric probably actually had a gay experience (if not several) in college, while drunk - just like most straight boys do - and thought it could be something he could offer to daddy to assist his flaccid campaign.)

"Tom Arnold converted to Judaism but you guys can have him back"
