Gays who love Trump to rally

Gays who love Donald Trump are planning a rally at the Lincoln Memorial

The group ‘Gays for Trump’ is planning a rally in Washington, DC at the Lincoln Memorial for March 4.

The North Carolina-based group, led by Peter Boykin, say they anticipate 1,000 people will attend.
The group’s rally last year that drew a couple hundred ______.

The group marched from the Washington Monument to the White House; this year they’ll make the march again.

The group previously made headlines for raising funds for a ‘Gays For Trump’ billboard in Orlando, near the site of the Pulse nightclub shooting ...
Boykin’s husband, who is also active with the group, was thrown out of a Trump rally in 2016 for assaulting a protester.

The Log Cabin Republicans did not be endorse Donald Trump due to his numerous anti-gay advisers.

The administration has done the most to attack LGBT people in presidential history.

The association's official organ was the monthly Der nationaldeutsche Jude edited by Max Naumann. The magazine had a circulation of 6000 in 1927.[4]

Among the activities of this group was the fight against the Jewish boycott of German goods.[5] They also issued a manifesto that stated that the Jews were being fairly treated.

In 1934 the group made the following statement:[6]

"We have always held the well-being of the German people and the fatherland, to which we feel inextricably linked, above our own well-being. Thus we greeted the results of January, 1933, even though it has brought hardship for us personally."

A possible reason why some German Jews supported Hitler may have been that they thought that his antisemitism only was for the purpose of "stirring up the masses".[1]
