Eric Trump 'Came Out' & Gay Twitter Wants Nothing To Do With Him
Eric Trump "coming out" was definitely not something we had on our 2020 bingo card, but alas, here we are...
\u201cEric 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."\u201d— Bobby Lewis (@Bobby Lewis) 1601381676
During a recent appearance on Fox & Friends, Donald Trump's third child and the executive vice president of the Trump Organization, reacted to a question about a supposed demographic of "secret Trump voters" asked by host Ainsley Earhardt when he made an...interesting revelation about himself.
"There are a lot of people that might be voting for your dad that aren't admitting it," Earhardt says to Eric after sharing a story of an unidentified lesbian Trump supporter. "So are you counting on this person? The 'secret voter?'"
"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," Eric responds.
While we don't think he literally meant he was a part of the LGBTQ+ community (he was probably trying to say he thinks of himself as an ally who stands with the community, but we know that considering the very anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ history of his father's administration, that's a big fat lie), his wording made it sound as if he was coming out.
And Gay Twitter was having absolutely none of it.
