If you halved Donald Trump’s age, changed his sexual orientation, gave him a British accent and fussed with his hair only a little, you’d end up with a creature much like Milo Yiannopoulos.
He could be Trump’s lost gay child. In fact, Yiannopoulos, 33, has a habit of referring to Trump, 70, as “Daddy.”
Trump the father and Yiannopoulos the son are both provocateurs who realize that in this day and age especially, the currency of celebrity isn’t demeaned by the outrageousness and offensiveness through which a person achieves it.
Both are con men, wrapping themselves in higher causes, though their primary agendas are the advancement of themselves.
The real Yiannopoulos kept bubbling up through the fake-sorry Yiannapoulos, who didn’t even pretend all that hard. Presenting himself as some kind of martyr and refashioning himself as some kind of hero, he couldn’t have had more of Trump’s DNA in him if he were Trump’s clone.

Got it, thanks.
Both have leveraged the concept “There’s no such thing as bad publicity” very effectively.
homosexuals are always easy targets. that’s why we’re better off without milo and his adolescent interviews.
You are living proof that once in a while liberals actually get something right.
You are living proof that the FR homo-mafia is still flailing.
Looks like Milo isn’t going away. That was really a left-wing hit on him because they can’t out-debate him.
Here’s his eloquent resignation, stating he’ll still publish his book and he will still be an ardent fighter for free speech and will launch his own media:

Worth watching (whether one approves of gays or not) as he’s far more articulate and wins more discussions than many RINOS & Conservatives. Because he’s gay, he’s a Trojan Horse for the left. They’ve been broadsided by a gay who is an articulate conservative.
No, he is not.
I’ll put my posting history up against yours anytime, r2d2....
Trump actually ran successful companies, and Milo...
This Son of a B*tch called the President a con man. Trump should boot the NYT from the WH until they apologize.
Everyone liberal is testing Trump’s boundaries-he needs to respond. imho
Milo is giving us the language to fight the left. He’s a great American hero. And he’s not even American!
Use his words to battle the opposition. That’s what they’re there for.
And the Liz Mair-Evan McMullin pack of jackals is using him to wedge Trump supporters. It’s time to crack some skulls.
He realizes what’s at stake. He loves this country. That’s what Trump is talking about.
I see him as a brave, eloquent man taking on the deep state.
My prayers are with him and the President.
One more thing. Get on you tube before they delete all this stuff, and watch about 6 hours of Milo videos to see the real heart and soul of this extraordinary person.
The New YUCK Times is a ball of pure hate...
I won’t pretend to understand Gay men (women I kinda get) but what I have done, decades ago, was to accept they exist and have every right to their wants and needs as I do as a non Gay guy.
My personal interaction with them in the medical field all those years ago did teach me to not trust Gay guys (they can be really catty) but also to not automatically dislike them either. Some are as normal (otherwise) as any straight guy and some are flaming in your face.
I see Milo as someone who is outspoken, loves to speak in public, very confident, and surprisingly intelligent and quick on his feet. I think we are lucky to have someone like him on our side and hope he doesn’t give up over this. Maybe a setback but I hope he doesn’t call it quits and give up. He’s one of the good ones and I admire his willingness to reach out to the college age people in their own college settings to get them to think in terms they likely had not due to the freakish liberal mentality permeating colleges these days.
Yep. Milo talked about his own personal sexual experiences. He never endorsed anything. And let’s get real, if Milo was straight and talked about enjoying sex at 14 with a hot teacher around 23 years old, most straight guys would not consider it molestation.
He said he liked it, well most guys would at that age.
idk. The fact the right coupled with the left to get rid of Milo is sickening to me.
The Onion is funny, the smiles isn’t.
they only think they got Milo. I was talking to a friend who is liberal and involved with LGBT. there is an under standing within that group that the charge of him being a pedophile because of him approving of relationships of older men twenty seven year old with a younger man seventeen year old was actually an betrayal of LGBT community because of the nature of the equivency that was used in the attack. I think that going after Milo in the way they did actually scared some of the members of the community.
