New York is having one of the worst coronavirus outbreaks in the country, but that didn’t stop Lucian Wintrich, founder of Twinks 4 Trump, from holding a “Corona Potluck” at his apartment in the East Village.
According to the New York Post, roughly 20 partygoers “jammed his artfully-decorated apartment, drinking and socializing under Wintrich’s massive erotic oil painting depicting the murder of Abel, encased in a gilded baroque frame.”
The invitation for the gathering, which was held on March 14, read: “They can’t diagnose us all… Don’t wash your hands. … Bring your fav dish!” It also included a picture of a little boy covered in chicken pox and a fork holding a coronavirus spore.
Wintrich says he was inspired to host the shindig by “the chickenpox parties that were all the rage in the 90s.”
How about we take this to the next level?

“The majority of folks I invited, if they got it, would recover fairly quickly and build up an immunity to the present form of COVID-19,” he tells the New York Post.
For the record: It is still not known if or for how long a person remains immune to COVID-19 after they have recovered from it.
Wintrich adds that nobody who went to his party was deliberately trying to infect anyone.
“The quarantine, itself, is serious to a degree,” he said. “I wouldn’t hang around folks over the age of 50 and risk infecting the more vulnerable.”
Also for the record: Nobody, regardless of their age, is safe from coronavirus. Just last week, a healthy 17-year-old from Los Angeles died from complications from COVID-19. And last weekend, a 40-year-old man from Miami, who had no prior health issues, also succumbed to the disease.
In addition to founding “Twinks 4 Trump,” for a brief while, Wintrich was a credentialed White House reporter for the alt-right blog Gateway Pundit. In 2018, The Daily Beast reported his White House credentials had been stripped after he appeared on a white supremacist podcast. Wintrich, who rejects the “alt-right” label, disputed the report.

Just more proof that being a gay republican is a serious mental condition.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Further proof that he is completely ignorant and uninformed in EVERY bit of inane nonsense that comes out of his vile noxious mouth…
And he really has absolutely no right to attach the Twink label to himself. Definition of a Twink is a young attractive Gay. This mess is actually disturbing looking. He has zero sex appeal nor attractiveness. ..

1. If more than 5 people showed up he would have posted pictures.
2. This is more proof that the Trump cult is fast morphing into a suicide cult just like so many other crazy cults of personality.

The name makes me sick(I mean why would twinks support Trump? Not sure why anyone does though.) and the whole concept makes me sick. #1 this isn’t chicken pox, #2 getting chicken pox early may be good in some ways but it leads to potentially getting shingles later in lie so keep unknown complications in mind with a stupid plan like this, #3 even if you don’t “plan” on being around anyone 50+ you could be around someone with underlying health conditions or come into contact with someone older if you’re say at a grocery store not to mention your plans may not align with everyone else who attends your little party, etc.

‘Twinks 4 Trump” makes about as much sense as “Jews 4 Hitler.” Of course they got together against all recommendations. The put their own lives at risk. Far more importantly the put the lives of countless other people at risk.

This sounds terrible, but I’m beginning to hope the virus will get rid of some of these nasty, mean-spirited millennials. These are the sociopaths the world will be stuck dealing with.

I support him and hopes he makes it a weekly occurrence…..?. I’ll even send a pot roast….self elimination is a good thing.

Good luck to ‘em… (shakes head…)

Just one more example of why support for Trump is a belief, like a religion. Logic and truth have nothing to do with the belief that Trump is great and does many ‘perfect’ things.

No one over 30 is still a twink. This person isn’ta twink. This person is seriously mentally ill and should be institutionalized.

Why are people on the left so easily trolled by right wingers? Do you enjoy being the butt of the joke? This stunt is similar to the “Straight Pride Parades”… it’s meant to upset the snowflakes.
Pro tip: don’t be a snowflake.

Everytime somebody right wing does something stupid, an account comes on and tries to tell us that we shouldn’t point out how stupid they are.
Why not? Sarah Huckabee Sanders quit her job at the White House after just ONE restaurant refused to serve her. I have no problem with calling out idiocy.
dougie
Sorry, Luci. A 31-year old guy is no longer a twink, no matter how much you fantasize.

Remember the definition of a Twink. Cute, thin , hairless and brain dead!
