Under Trump's administration, we have seen diminishing advocacy for the LGBTQ community. I remember years ago hearing that some supported Trump even though he does not support them. Your article provided me with the insight to understand why that is the case. It seems that Richard Grenell is the certified gaslighter on this issue. It is the same with Ben Carson, who is a Black man who says that slavery was a choice. He is over public housing and works against Black people all the while attracting Black republicans.

Thanks for writing this story. It shows another reason why we have to fight hard against another four years of trauma.
