Melania Trump Bizarrely Claims Her Husband "Sees Potential" in Gay People

Proving that no one in the Trump family has ever googled the definition of irony, Melania Trump reaffirmed her husband’s alleged love for the LGBTQ+ community at a recent rally.

The First Lady, who has been notably absent from the 2020 campaign trail, made a pit stop in southeastern Pennsylvania on Tuesday ahead of the November 3 voting deadline. In her address to the largely maskless crowd gathered in Atglen, Mrs. Trump criticized media coverage of the president, claiming that it has intentionally misrepresented who he really is. She described him as someone “who sees potential in everyone he meets, no matter their gender, race, religion or sexual orientation.” (That statement that notably excludes trans people, but that’s kind of their thing.)

“Donald loves helping people and he loves seeing those around him and his country succeed,” she added, claiming that he has a “very big heart and a great sense of humor.”

Returning to a victimhood narrative which has been a staple of the president’s reelection bid, Mrs. Trump alleged her husband had been targeted by the press simply because he is a conservative, suggesting a Democrat would have been treated differently.

The corrupt politicians and religious bigots put up with this orange clown so they can get the judges and regulation roll backs they want. GTFOHWTHBS about him being a conservative.


I'll be glad when they go back to the rock they crawled out from under.

He doesn't love anyone but himself. He only cares if he succeeds. And he doesn't care on whose back he has to climb to get what he wants. If he had to grind 1,000 LGBTQ into crushed glass to make a million dollars, he'd do it in a heartbeat.

She wins the Tone Deaf Award (at least until someone else in his circle opens their pie hole).

When he said he wanted to kiss all the men at one of his rallies the other night?

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

But listening to the claps peter after he said it was kind of amazing.

who overlook Trump's 'immorality' because he hates everyone they do, ie women, non-whites, immigrants, gays etc - and appoints justices who feel the same.

His base knows this is just a trick to get swing voters and women, to seem more 'liberal' and 'compassionate' on these issues - but will return to their regular scheduled hate after the election.

Anyone buying this load of horse shit is a bigger idiot than that entire con family put together. The level of gaslighting they have inflicted on this country is unforgivable.
