I’m not gay, is not the right answer. We already know where that will take you.

I saw his answer as an obvious deflection, full of false indignation and a pre-thought out answer at that, not even giving it a second thought after King asked him the question. It was as if he was waiting for it to be asked.
So he says ask his wife? Why? Why not ask McGreevy who also had a wife? Ask his friends? Why? It's supposedly one of his good friends who's also making the sexual harassment charges. Ask the sailors in the Navy? Yea, let's ask your ship bunk mate who moved out the next day after you supposedly propositioned him the night before.
