Major Democratic presidential candidates have been campaigning at the church of a pastor who denigrates LGBTQ people.
Mercury News reports that at least three of the top 2020 presidential candidates Senators Kamala Harris (D-CA), Cory Booker (D-NJ), and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) have visited the Victory Missionary Baptist Church in Las Vegas, Nevada, on campaign stops.
Harris and Booker attended services at the church and Sanders held a townhall there.
Its pastor isnt a friend of LGBTQ people, though. Reverend Robert E. Fowler, Sr., has a history of inflammatory comments.
In 2013, he compared homosexuality to pedophilia.
