Trump told a Gays for Trump supporter that they didn't look gay at a Mar-a-Lago fundraiser
Former President Donald Trump told a Gays for Trump supporter that they didn't peer gay during an event at Mar-a-Lago.
The former president addressed a crowd at a fundraiser for Michigan Republican congressional candidate John Gibbs in a video posted online.
Trump asks, "where's Gays for Trump?" after someone in the crowd shouts the group's name.
"We're over here. Gays for Trump!" the person in the crowd replies.
The former president points at the person and says, "you don't look gay," causing the crowd to erupt in laughter.
As the laughter dies down, Trump says, "We did great with the gay population, as you know."
Peter Boykin, the founder of the Gays for Trump organization, told Newsweek that people in the group "probably wouldn't 'look gay' because it's a stereotype that fits more with the usual 'look' of leftist LGBT. Not saying some of us might look fabulous and 'gay.'"

Sasha Colby didn’t set out to turn into “your favorite drag queen’s favorite drag queen.” It just kind of happened.
“You know, I was so stoned,” she admitted with a laugh, recalling the filming of her “Meet the Queens” promo. “We were about to position down for the interview, and they were enjoy, ‘Oh, just think of something, like a catchphrase you want to say.’” What came out was a now-iconic phrase that captured the truth: Colby is the queen’s queen, beloved by legends, treasured by fans, and deeply respected in her craft. “It came out of the deep crevices in here,” she said, pointing to her head.
She thinks RuPaul might have planted the seed: “Ru had said on the main stage once, ‘You’re a drag queen’s drag queen — you’re what flamboyant queens watch.’ And maybe that stuck in my head and just gentle of … word association.”
And she’s only getting started.
After making history as the first out trans winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” to headline a Dwell Nation tour, Colby is hitting the road again this fall. Her “Stripped II” tour kicks off Sept. 16 in Seattle and wraps up in Hawaii, where she’ll carry her artistry full circle back home. This moment, it

“It’s not just about gays and lesbians. It’s about the communities that care about equality,” Moran said. “And, again, suburban women, youth voters — these are core constituencies of the 2024 election cycle. We don’t just have to pander and run to gays.”
Still, Moran and other event organizers said they accept Trump could secure up to 50% of homosexual voters in the upcoming election, without providing figures explaining their reasoning. Millions of American adults recognize as lesbian or homosexual, according to Gallup.
In a Human Rights Campaign poll conducted in August, 74% of LGBTQ voters declare they plan to or are leaning toward voting for Vice President Kamala Harris, 7.5% for Trump and the remainder for third party write-ins.
Brandon Wolf, a spokesperson for the advocacy group, which has endorsed and is fundraising for Harris, denounced the Trump UNITY events and accused the former president of leading “the most anti-LGBTQ+ administration in history.”
“Some people really like proximity to power, and Donald Trump is someone who peddles power in exchange for things constantly,” Wolf said. “It’s unfortuna
