The 2016 Election

I don't mean this rhetorically....I really am curious. At the convention, Trump said this -

"Only weeks ago, in Orlando, Fla., 49 wonderful Americans were savagely murdered by an Islamic terrorist,” Trump said. “This time, the terrorist targeted the LGBTQ community. No good, and we’re going to stop it. As your president, I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology. Believe me."

Do believe that was just for show? And if so, why would it be for show at the Republican convention?

Do I believe that was just for show? Yes.
I don't think Drumph gives a sh¡t about what happened in Orlando. I don't think he's glad it happened (unlike Pence, who I'm sure got a chubbie when he heard 49 fags got murdered), I just don't think Drumph cares one way or the other.

Why would Drumph make those comments at the RNC? Because he can spin it as anti-Muslim hate-speech.

Having said all that, I could rather easily be convinced Drumph is not personally homophobic. I think he's homo-apathetic. But holy fückballs, the team he's assembling certainly is homophobic! Seeing how nominee after nominee is anti-queer makes me wonder if Pence is whispering in Drumph's ear for these noms.
