Donald Trump Wednesday told a crowd to "ask the gays" who's our friend, Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton? We're glad you asked, Mr. Trump! We gays have a lot of opinions about you. Here are the best opinions on Trump from prominent LGBT comedians and activists on Twitter.
Louis Virtel helps us understand exactly the voter bloc Mr. Trump appeals to.
Donald Trump is for people whose problem with Joseph McCarthy is "too sexy."

The legendary George Takei notes an important passage of time (and simultaneously gets us humming the Rent soundtrack for the rest of the day).
One year ago today, Trump launched his presidential campaign. Also known as "525,600 minutes of WTF."
