Donald Trump has admitted his views on gay marriage are 'evolving', however, the property mogul claimed that he is still a strong supporter of traditional marriage between a man and woman.

Speaking to openly gay MSNBC anchor Thomas Roberts, the billionaire said that his views on the subject are different to what they were 10 years ago and pointed to President Obama coming out in support of same-sex marriage.

In Moscow as the co-owner of the Miss Universe Organization, Trump attended Saturday night's pageant along with Roberts, who openly criticized Russia's anti-gay laws.

Evolving: Donald Trump has claimed that he is changing his mind on the issue of gay marriage but still believes in the traditional union of a man and a a woman

'I think I’m evolving, and I think I’m a very fair person, but I have been for traditional marriage,' said Trump to Roberts in an interview before the Miss Universe pageant in Moscow.

'I am for traditional marriage,' Trump said. 'I am for a marriage between a man and a woman.'

Discussing the issue of same-sex marriage in society, Trump was asked if his outspoken opposition to Russia's infamous anti-gay laws had helped shift his opinion.

'I think really what you have is a very changing stance, and you see it changing very rapidly. If you go back 10 years ago it’s very different,' Trump responded.

Trump will never debate anybody.

He wants a big soapbox and a microphone.

> Are you saying that polygamy, raiding villages for maidens, etc., were also “traditional”? After all, they date back to antiquity

It was still sin back thin just as it is today. Jesus made that pretty clear.

In a way, it’s splitting hairs, but what has really happened in China since about 1978 is modernization as opposed to automation. They were so far behind in so many areas of manufacturing that automation just doesn’t cover it.

And that modernization destroyed millions of old manufacturing jobs and created millions of new ones, and maybe resulting in net fewer jobs. And for the last few years, since wages have risen in China, they have been losing jobs to even cheaper labor nations like Vietnam, Cambodia, Bangladesh and others.

He flips more than Romney and Kerry, combined. He’s not presidential.
