I love seeing reality make peoples' heads spin haha
I don't see any spinning heads. Obviously the person has other terrible qualities that Trump likes more than he hates gays.
He has hired black people and Trump hates black people. He still thinks the Central Park 5 are guilty despite the actual perpetrator being found and the five being exonerated.
Fair enough, maybe the TDS sufferers aren't exactly "spinning" per se. It's just funny to see people with a set narrative add conditions to that narrative once they notice it comes in conflict with reality.
"Trump hates gays" becomes "Trump hates gays unless they're bad people" once Trump hires a gay person, for example.
White people would pay to see black performers in the 50s, but wouldn't let them use the same water fountains or building entrances.
You can be a bigoted prick while still employing people you're bigoted against.
Donald Sterling, the racist former NBA team owner is a recent example
I feel like your analogy doesn't quite map even if you're making a good point here
Looks like you are projecting your spinning head onto others.
How does telling yourself that make you feel?
