    I knew a few people who are gay and none of them have felt the need to redecorate their house in incredibly tacky gold leaf.

    No they don’t. Usually gay people have taste and eye for fashion. They wouldn’t wear suits too big or decorate like this tacky monstrosity.

      Do you know how misshapen and lumpy Trump’s body is? That man’s tailor is a miracle worker to turn that into “wtf is that” into merely “oh, the suit looks too big”.

        Ok, fair point. But again, his taste is horrible. I’ve seen gay people with a taste far from mine, but usually they have an eye for it and it makes sense. With Donny, it doesn’t and it’s just cheap and bad.

      Okay, but aside from maybe like the few women drag queens, how often you finding one that isn’t the gayest man you’d ever meet?

    Just some context:

    Trump’s (and Roger Stone’s) political mentor was notorious mob lawyer and gay homophobe Roy Cohn, whose death by AIDS was dramatized in the acclaimed 90s play Angels in America.

    Cohn, and conservatives in general, always denied that he was gay, rationalizing that he only enjoyed sexually dominating young blonde men. That wasn’t the same as being gay. Okaaaay…

    Bottom line is that at the time of their mentorship with Cohn, both Trump and Stone were young blonde men.

    Do with this information what you will.

    Feels like I’m back in the early aughts with all the homophobia and tired, moronic gay stereotypes in this thread.

    Fuck everything about all of this.

      I find that a lot of straight liberals will practically foam at the mouth to identify a Bad removed that they can be homophobic towards.

      Remember all of those homoerotic images of Trump and Putin that libs loved to be openly disgusted by?

      I am gay, i have great taste. I consider myself in the know enough to inform you not all gay people have good taste. Some have no taste. Some have bad taste. Some have really bad taste. There is this bias thing going on where you only notice the times your belief is confirmed. And yes, many people with great taste are gay. But there are exceptions. Some people with great taste aren’t even the slightest bit gay. Not sure about Trump though. I consider him someone who definitely has a taste. And all the gold is quite gay. The amount of gold in his penthouses is so extreme it must be some sort of kink. It’s beyond overcompensation. Him being gay would explain a lot.

      Please stop stereotyping us like this. We are not all a bunch of fucking Queer Eye characters.

        Omg I hated that show… I’d like that saw the bit in Queer as Folk that was amazing at being super critical of commercializing gayness and they decided to make a show out of it like “wait, but what if we could actually make a shit ton of money off of stereotypes?”

          Gay folks can be edgy shitheads too, though. I would not let any of my queer friends get away with using the word “gay” as a pejorative. I’m not asking that you push back against them, just understand why I choose to do even if you don’t.

      I think it’s why Liberace was mentioned. In the closet and (what I would describe) as gay with bad taste.

    Has anyone ever encountered the concept of Bisexuality on this website?

    Also I don’t think he paints his living spaces in Gold because he’s queer. I think he does it because he’s an arsehole who wants to appear like a Pre-revolution French Monarch or Middle Eastern Dictator. He’s extra in that sense and queer in the sense he has no picture in his Grindr profile and randomly sends twinks dick pics when he’s not on the Deep web.
