"A radil Islamic terrorist targeted the nightclub not only bee he wanted to kill Amerins, but orr to execute gay and lbian cizens bee of their sexual orientatn, " Tmp said. While Tmp seemed to still be showg sympathy to gays and lbians, the livery was off for many watchg — his talk shifted om support for the muny to boastful pri.

WHAT ARE TMP’S VIEWS ON THE LGBTQ MUNY AND GAY MARRIAGE?

"Ask the gays what they thk and what they do, , not only Sdi Arabia, but many of the untri, and then you tell me — who's your iend, Donald Tmp or Hillary Clton? What stood out most, bis that prerly placed fe article, was the qutn: "Ask the gays.
