Donald Trump will meet with 400 right-wing evangelical pastors just days after saying what a great “friend” he is to the LGBT community following the Orlando tragedy.

This coming Tuesday, June 21, the Trump campaign will hold will host its highest-profile event thus far to court evangelicals; “a private meeting with over 400 of the most bigoted, most homophobic and most influential anti-LGBTadvocates in the United States — from Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins to James Dobson, founder of the Focus on the Family — the bedrock of the religious right, which has been a prominent part of the base of the Republican Party for decades,” the Huffington Post reported.

The article also stated that “No GOP president has been elected in modern times without evangelical pastors railing from pulpits across the country, telling followers that the only way to save the country is to support the GOP presidential candidate.”

Family Research Council, in particular, has been labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center and led the effort to ban gay conservative groups from CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) sponsorship. In fact, the gay conservative group Log Cabin Republicans was not allowed to participate in a panel discussion at the conference until last year.

    when you lie every waking hour, it’s hard to keep track of who you really like. he’ll go on record to say, he never said he was a friend of the LGBT community.

    Stop calling these hate merchants “Pastors”. You are misusing a word ta refers to dedicated, working clergy persons who are for their sheep not devour them.
