Nothing conveys Donald Trump's support
for the LGBT community better
than when he retrieved the iconic rainbow flag
with "LGBTs for Trump"
scribbled on it
from a front-row supporter
and proudly displayed it to the audience
ignorant that when the text was readable
the symbolic colors
were in upside-down order
with red at the bottom
and violet at the top
making it entirely possible
that the audience member
is not a member of said community.
In fact
Donald Trump plans to sign
the First Amendment Defense Act
which would allow for discrimination
against LGBT people
and also intends to install Supreme Court justices
who would overturn marriage equality.
It's not his fault
the flag was upside-down
but he's always proud
to overturn human rights.
