Trump, anti-LGBTQ evangelical right gather at the White House for ceremony of repulsive mutual buttkissing

Last night, Donald Trump and the religious right desecrated the White House got together at a White House function to celebrate their mutual relationship. At the most, many of us were wishing for a recreation of that scene in The Ten Commandments when Charlton Heston nailed Edgar G. Robinson with the stone tablets, causing hole tin the Earth to open up and swallow him and his followers.

At the very least, we got yet another receipt to cash in with regards to the hypocrisy of the anti-LGBTQ right and how their actions when they have actual power conflict with their virtue signaling words

‘History Will Record The Greatness That You Have Brought For Generations,’ Religious Right Leaders Tell Trump - Apparently the anti-LGBTQ right kissed Trump's butt so hard that they left permanent scars.

‘Spiritual Warfare’: First Family Honors Dozens of Top Anti-Gay Activists at White House ‘State Dinner’ - And they were all there. From those who accused gays of "recruiting" children to those who accused gays of trying to "bankrupt Christians" to those who have made recent and awful remarks about transgender men and women. 

Ivanka Trump Smiles With Pastor Who Thinks Marriage Equality Is Satan’s Work - And the mainstream media noticed. 

In the end, let's not grumble mutually among ourselves. We should be reminding everyone just how vile these people are:

Gary Bauer - the anti-gay talking head who undermined the fight against HIV/AIDS in the Reagan Administration - This post from 2014 is a prime example. One of the attendees of Trump's event last night, Gary Bauer, is a long time anti-LGBTQ talking head hiding behind religious beliefs and so-called support of the "traditional family." He also worked in the Reagan Administration during the early days of the AIDS crisis. According to the late C. Everett Koop, who was the Surgeon General at the time, Bauer undermined efforts to fight the AIDS crisis because he felt that those afflicted with it got what they deserved. 

 And here are links to various information about the other attendees:

Franklin Graham, who spoke at the event, says he loves gay people “enough to care to warn them that if they want to continue living like this, it’s the flames of hell for them” (https://t.co/QEtHTPZtCf).
