Well, we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief because Donald J. Trump has lost his reelection bid. Come Wednesday, January 20, 2021, our shared four-year nightmare will finally (finally!) be over.
Well, at least it will be for most of us.
For roughly 28% of LGBTQ voters, the nightmare is just beginning. That’s how many queer people cast their ballots for Trump, according to exit surveys conducted by Edison Research for the National Election Pool.
Needless to say, these folx are not taking Trump’s loss well…

The news media is trying to demoralize people with valid questions about this process by declaring Biden the winner.
Networks don’t decide elections, the people do.
And the next few weeks will be filled with legal challenges. Keep fighting.

In the last four days since the election, every single swing state magically flipped from red to blue by margin of less than 30k votes.
Check them yourself:
AZ, NV, GA, PA, WI
You’re expecting me to believe each state magically found just enough votes to narrowly beat Trump?

For once I’m going to agree with you. Please do not set up underage kids to be targets of vitriolic response, and that goes across the political spectrum, i.e. rightwingers towards liberal kids, as happened to the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas survivors who spoke up for gun control.

Agreed. Showing the underage (for any reason) is not acceptable.

And it’s even a joke.
Just watching his tweet account it’s pretty obvious the kid is not a Trumper

i’m confused, which one is 14? are you referring to the picture on the first tweet, the one with the #ivoted? since when can a 14 year-old vote and how do you know he’s 14? he looks like any number of twinks who have been shown wearing ‘gays for trump’ shirts, waving flags and cheering on their mango god. and why blame qweerty for showing his picture. he’s the one who put it up VOLUNTARILY on what i’ll assume is a public page.

barryaksarben
more dishonesty for the right. if the guy is 14 he couldnt have voted so you are full of shit just like the rest of the right. All these racist trump queens are pathetic . He got voted out by over 4 MILLION votes. 4 million and Hillary won by 3 million and you didnt see us demand lawsuits and scream about winning because she didnt get 270 electoral votes and neither did trump. THis election looks liek the reverse of 2016 when Hillary was ahead early but then the trump votes came in late to give him the job. Grow up and concede with dignity. Hell even NIXON conceded with class but we all know that TRUMP HAS NO CLASS. The man paints his toilets gold – how tacky

@Baryaksarben
you can click on his profile and clearly see that he’s 14. And if you scroll down his page it’s clear he’s not a Trumper. He can get that sticker and hat from anywhere.

TomG
Because obviously they are the same. People tend to stick by their own kind.
SnakeyJ
@Josh477: You can same the same about Biden. In his early political career he claimed he had 3 degrees, graduated at the top of his class, and had a full scholarship. But it turns out he has one degree, went to college on a 1/2 scholarship (still not bad, don’t know why he’d lie about that), and graduated at the bottom of his class. Watch old news clips from the 80’s the media was not a fan of his. Cheating? Biden sexually assaulted Tara Reade. She had people corroborate her story, but the media pushed it away. All those people saying believe all women turned a blind eye to this allegation and called her a liar. Sexual molester? I don’t see any evidence from Trump, but Biden can be seen on numerous clips on You Tube sniffing the hair of little girls and whispering in their ears. Con artist? Are people just ignoring the Hunter Biden scandal? Joe was in on it. How can a career Politian, never making much more over $200,000 a year, end up with 3 multi-million dollar homes? Trump made his money through business dealings/property. Even if he has shady business practices, we know where his money came from. As far as being narcissistic and a sociopath… there are studies that claim almost all driven, powerful people are exactly both of those. It keeps them detached enough from real life to be so successful in their fields. So, Biden is probably one as well.
The media has also been taking small snippets of Trump’s speeches and claiming he’s this or that, but when you dig online and see the speeches in full and in context, he’s really not saying anything wrong. The number of times the news outlets have claimed he’s never disavowed white supremacists is ridiculous, and people believe it despite him disavowing them a ton of times. You can see those clips on You Tube as well.

Sweetie, you’re a troll account here to defend anti-LGBTQ bigots and desperately always try to deflect the thread.
You’re just sad, but I take great joy in knowing that whatever pay you were supposed to be getting from the Trump campaign won’t ever arrive. Not only is Trump a criminal, but he doesn’t pay his bills.

@Cam: Can you make an argument against any of the points that I’ve made? I’m always looking to learn.
Josh447
Snakey,
You left out divisive, which is the main reason people want him gone. Even his own party gets that. He’s a self dealing reactionary attacking democracy and acting generally like a cantankerous bafoon towards people who disagree with him. Ruining their lives with a single sentence.
Regardless of your support of his lies and Hitlerism, I’ll take a unifying source like Biden over a recalcitrant divide and conquer 3 yr old who can’t take “no”, any day of the week. Poor breeding that one. Very poor.
SnakeyJ
@Josh447: You’re right about divisive. He is a terrible speaker and can’t hide his emotions. He can’t take criticism, and goes on the attack if he’s given any. That’s probably why he wasn’t re-elected. I do think a lot of it was brought on by the treatment from the media, and ultimately he couldn’t handle it as well as a seasoned politician. But as far as policy goes, I find him more transparent. He did create a great economy, much stronger than Obama’s. Brought some manufacturing jobs back, and unemployment rates were the lowest in a long time. I think it’s unfair to compare him to Hitler. If you want to talk about Fascist ideology look at AOC calling for a a library of “Trump sycophants” tweets to use against them in the future. That sounds exactly like the type of action Joseph Stalin and Hitler took to suppress any dissenting opinions. The communists and socialists shut down free speech, which is something the far left seem to be into as well.
Kangol2
@SnakeyJ, I’m not going to call you a liar, but you baldly stated mistruths in your response. Let’s start with one: Joe Biden has one degree. This is FALSE.
Joe Biden has two degrees: a bachelor’s degree (BA) from the University of Delaware, and a law degree (JD) from Syracuse University. He also passed the bar in the state of Delaware. These are verifiable facts so why did you just post what you did? I mean, come on! He also wasn’t last in his class at either institution. Again, you can look this up. We have never seen Don the Con’s transcripts or anything else, despite all his claims to being a “stable genius,” but when it comes to the president-elect and the prior ten (or more?) presidents, we know exactly where they went to school, received their degrees, etc.
Another mistruth: Joe Biden “raped” Tara Reade. Unlike the numerous allegations against Don the Con, a number of which have remained consistent over time, including in legal documents, Tara Reade’s allegation is both logistically farcical and has changed repeatedly. Why? I don’t know. At first she criticized her mistreatment in Biden’s office, but not Biden. Then her allegations against Biden kept changing and escalating. At a certain point, journalists–except those on the far right who have been seeking a Biden scandal nonstop–dropped the story because Tara Reade was such an unreliable witness. I know it may be hard to grasp this, but she is the issue, not Biden.
Another mistruth: the Hunter Biden scandal and the lie that Joe Biden knew etc. As we saw during the impeachment, Don the Con, Rudy Giuliani, etc. tried their best to smear Joe Biden going back to 2019, by extorting a smear from Ukraine, which to its credit said NO. Ukraine, China, etc. as well as authorities who have looked into these pseudo-scandals have all noted that Joe Biden did not gain anything from Hunter Biden’s deals. In fact with Burisma, Biden was essentially shutting down the corrupt prosecutor, not aiding him. What’s also known is that a good deal of this sleazy info came from Andrey Derkach, Rudy Giuliani’s pal, who is a Russian agent–and was named as such by Don the Con’s own Treasury Department. You can swallow Russian disinformation all you want, and Russian TV ran those videos trying to smear Biden, but they did not work.
It’s tragic that 71 million people have bought into Don’s elaborate con job, but all anyone had to do was look at his past record of failures, from which he was bailed out, let off the hook, or lied or conned his way out danger, to see that he was bound to be a disaster as president too. And he has not disappointed in his disastrousness.
Josh447
Snakey,
I do agree about the economy, it was zinging right up to Covid19 however, Obama took a terrible economy over from Bush and also made it zing, with valor and statesmanship, attributes which Trump fully lacks.
Covid or not the economy is in shambles upon Trump’s departure which seems to be a republican repeat of many cycles, then dems take over and clean it up.
I don’t see democrats squashing free speech. I see them calling out free speech full of lies on Trump’s dance card and that’s about it.
Regardless I think we can maybe agree on one thing, Trump just “doesn’t play well with others” to include the global stage. Hence no reelection.
TomG
I agree with your water seeks its own level comment.

Sadly, like Evangelicals, these LGBTQ Trump supporters are OBVIOUSLY some of the least educated our nation has to offer. I guess low educated people are in every group.

In my opinion, LGBTQ Trump supporters, like Evangelicals, are some of the least educated people in our nation. I suppose, however, that every social group will include people with inadequate educations.

THERE WAS NO 28% GAY VOTE FOR TRUMP. THAT’S A LIE.
barryaksarben
The evangelical American taliban would have demanded that trump let them dictate what would happen to us as they forced these discriminatory “religious liberty” laws that exist onbly to allow them to discriminate agaisnt us and other religions. Gays who support trump are just self hating racist fools and need to grow up. Like those ONlyfans porn boys who think covid didnt kill enough of the old and sick as they feel they have no value obviously are too stupid to know about Stephen Hawking or Grandma Moses. THe fact that they see no value in human life no matter what a persons age or abilities proves they are ignorant. Every group including us has a minority of idiots and these are ours. I for one hope they keep their Trump crap up so that if a real person goes home with them they can run for it before getting involved with them
Mack
I, for one, think that the “28%” is bull. They only did the polling election day and they only sampled a small number. There are some LGBTQ Trump supporters-I know my ex from 45 years ago supports him. But he can’t make up his mind if he’s gay or straight even 45 years later. And I know the Log Cabin Republicans have been looking for acceptance for years-even though NO ONE ACCEPTS THEM.
barryaksarben
The one had nothing but POKEMON on his site. Makes me question his judgement but since he supports trump I already know he is menatlly ill
lambchopp59
Thank You. I thought something had to be terribly off about that figure. Reciprocal of the backlog of mail in ballots, largely it was the maskless idiots for Trump went “patriotically marching” lockstep into the polls. Hilarious all the whining about the outcome from Trump and followers after months of sowing mistrust in the absentee vote, then pretending it’s all fraudulent. Groups of pre-teens could formulate better subterfuge and/or react with superior discernment.
dhmonarch89
STOP PROMOTING THE MYTH/LIE that 28% of LGBT voted for Trump!!! That was an Election Day exit poll….on election day- mostly Republicans voted…. Democrats and Independents voted primarily by mail or early- @ 100 million of the final 145 million…so about 1/3 voted on Election day. WE DON’T Know how many LGBT people voted for Trump in the other 2/3- if only 5% did, then over all, about 12% may have voted Trump- but, Dem/Ind could be even less- 1-2%- making the average 10% Overall. I WOULD THINK A SITE written primarily for gay men would know that and try to stop spreading that falsehood!!!!!!!!
Iona Lexiss
Actually, there is research supporting this. I listened to this very story (about the 28%) on radio a few days ago–I believe it was NPR. If I recall correctly, I believe the takeaway was this 28% are grappling with their sexuality and are not really “out,” but identify as LGBT. Hmm. It’s worth a browser search to find the story/research.
Cam
@Iona Lexiss
Except that isn’t true. The 28% number is based on exit polls that were taken only on election day when the majority of Democrats had already voted.

Another stellar piece of journalism. Nothing more than a bitchy, catty opinion board. How can Queerty consider this journalism? Of course, to myself in the UK, and sooooo many, voting for Trump seems… insane. However, what I would really love to know is WHY LGBTQ people voted for Trump. Why is Queerty, an outlet that claims to have “no agenda but the GAY agenda” not interviewing these gays (and trans and bis and all others in the rainbow) who voted for a Trump did so. If gay people voted for Trump, an outlet that claims to represent the “gay agenda” should be trying to report on this. Instead Queerty is a problematic opinion board that aids in TENSION. At least if non-Trump voters knee why the gay Trump voters voted that way, people could understand. Disagree, yes, but understand. Queerty aids in our disillusions from each other. It’s sad.
barryaksarben
OMG shut the Fk Up. Obviously you do support trump. Name one other message board that doesnt skew one way or the other. ANY GAY oriented board will be pro Biden and decency UNLESS it is the GAYS for TRUMP board. Are you on that board screaming about how skewed it is? NO you are a troll period.

I type the following: “Begone TROLL . . . . . . . you have no power here!”

Funny how this account seems to have missed the other articles on here that did exactly what it’s complaining about.
Cam
For the hundredth time, 28% of LGBTQ voters did NOT vote for Trump.
The majority of democrats voted before election day, while more Republicans voted on election day. So election day exit polls are heavily weighted towards Republicans.
This was pointed out in multiple comments on the other thread where Queerty was promoting “Gays for Trump”.
So here’s another article about this miniscule group that again lists that inflated stat. Is the author a member of that group?
Roy Ajax
I’ve been looking for articles to discredit this 28% bull. Where did you read it?
GayEGO
I find it difficult to understand why any gays would support Trump. Trump supports white supremacists and religious bigots, all of them anti-LGBTQ. I guess this shows that LGBTQs are like the rest of civilization which has both supporters, the majority for Biden and the minority for Trump.

Reading the comments from the pro-trump lgbtq+ people I am amazed at the level of delusion – although I suppose I should not be considering how deluded Trump himself is. Do those people really think ‘the courts’ are going to overturn the clear defeat for the monster? Even if a handful of votes are found to be valid they will never be enough to make a jot of difference to the outcome.
The difference between 2016 and2020 is that the person who got by far the most votes will be the next President – now that IS democracy.
