Coming Out As A Republican To My Democrat Family Went Worse Than Coming Out Gay
The Federalist ^ | 01/09/2018 | Adam Levine

Posted on 01/11/2018 1:05:35 PM PST by DFG

I am not a sex offender. But a number of my friends no longer have time to see me. Lifelong acquaintances now regard me with fear and distrust. I have been unfriended en masse on social media and excoriated by friends who deign to remain. And I have been singly excluded from social gatherings when the rest of my family was invited.

No, I am not a sex offender. I am something even worse than that. I am a Donald Trump supporter.

“I came out to my family as gay at the ripe age of 20, and they were duly overjoyed.”

No wonder this fruit is a confused little twinkie.

It’s true though. Gays find out that we’re much more “tolerant” than their fellow gays are if they don’t agree with them politically.

The progressive left has lost their mind. I’ve challenged my angry liberal Bernie-supporting nephews to put a Trump bumper sticker on their cars for a month. No takers.

Liberals will tolerate anything. Queers, sex offenders, rapists, even child molesters.

But not conservatives.

“””Adam Paul Levine holds a BA in painting from Pomona College”””””

A degree in painting, eh? Good, I have a shed out back that could use a coat or two. Come on over.

Because I do not hear the weeping of millions of women and the cheers of millions of men, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume this isn't the singer and television personality Adam Levine.

Blacks could have warned him of this outcome for being Republican, particularly if they switch parties to become Republican.

Not all blacks are deemed properly black, by the Democrats.
Not all gays are deemed properly gay, either, by Democrats.

I’m still in the closet, sort of. I’m sure many of others in here are in similiar situation as I am due to our jobs.

That’s a great idea! For anyone claiming victimhood from discrimination or harassment, challenge them to put a Trump sticker on their car bumper and their home’s front window for one month. Keep a couple Trump stickers with you for offering.

If people react when I say I’m a Trump supporter, I tell them to just keep being concerned about foreigners, and I’ll keep being concerned about Americans.

Yup. I know quite a few gay conservatives. There is faux-tolerant, and there is tolerant.
