Why would any gay belong to a party that hates them???

[@Whocareslol420]

Tax cuts are more important than civil rights to them

[@Anon54387]

@@Whocareslol420 Imagine valuing keeping their own money. People work hard for their money, straight or gay, and don't like it taxed away. I live in California and there is no shortage of LGBTQ people around, and one of my co-workers votes R specifically because she doesn't like paying more taxes.

[@LonelyKnightess]

@@Anon54387 Unlike the Republicans who... also raise taxes. If you vote entirely based on taxes you're an idiot, it's not a brave or reasonable viewpoint, it's just being a conservative.

self hating people are the strangest thing

[@Kick_Rocks]

Self hating how? Because he doesn’t agree with Democrat policies? Because he prefers Republican policies more? Or because he can’t vote for different issues because he’s gay? Does the Democratic Party own gays, Black, Latino etc. votes?

[@timcuculic]

Great interview. Kyle is one of the best interviewers out there. Wishing him continued success.

[@missrose0077]

One thing I really appreciate about Mr Clark is he doesn't uh, uh, uh, ummm his way through every sentence. It's refreshing to listen to him speak.

[@Kick_Rocks]

I hate Kyle.

[@malonesinclaire9201]

I find it shocking that any self respecting person would be in a group that vocalize their disgust of who l am would remain in the group. NO SELF RESPECT HERE.

Oh, it's very representative of the GOP.

Jesus left you with TWO (2) commandments: 1. Love God 2. Love neighbor Why is it the second commandment where you stumble? Moreso, how are you fulfilling #1 if you are consumed in finding fault in God's creation in mankind.

"How are you [loving God] if you are consumed in finding fault in God's creation in mankind" is such a great response to christian hate, holy shit I'm stealing that! good looks dude

[@s.s.4170]

As a lifelong Republican woman, I agree with you 100%. Stay the course. Many Colorado Republicans are growing weary of the COGOP hate speech.

[@Wtfdawg321]

“It’s kind of a reference to the Westboro Baptist Church” come one man! It’s exactly what they want to say

[@Wtfdawg321]

It’s funny he was surprised by this, it totally represents the party and is exactly how they feel, believe what they say, which is they don’t like you and despise you

[@cil20002000]

[@justjeff4186]

There are accepting people almost everywhere (ty btw). But Colorado still has a contingency of people who would do harm to the queer community if and when they are given the opportunity. Fortunately, ‘wrong place, wrong time’ situations are becoming fewer and farther between. But we can’t let our guard down outside the Denver/Boulder greater metropolitan area.

[@SUSLTD]

I think the Colorado GOP, which sent out the email "God Hates Pride", is more than "a contingency of people".

[@gilesluver]

The cope is strong with this one. Holy cow. "It's not who the party is"? Based on what??

[@angelainamarie9656]

It is in fact all that I see when I look over at the Republican party is their hate.

Why is Archuleta giving the MAGA GOP of Colorado a pass in their hatred and stupidity? You enable what you allow.

Tired of hearing an interviewer pushing his opinion and agenda.

SOME Republicans are calling for the flags to be burned. I am a Republican who does NOT agree with this, so please stop making it look like we all agree with this nonsense.You said it in a way which makes all of us guilty. I believe ALL PEOPLE have sinned and have fallen short of the Glory of God, ......... But Jesus died for ALL OF US. Thank you.

You nay not agree with it, but you'll damn sure vote for it. I'm a Democrate and I don't support anyone who causes extreme harm towards anyone. Party affiliation be damned.

Dave doesn't hate Valdamar, and Valdamar makes a good point here. We don't have to agree with all Dave's approaches, but WE MUST confront all this pride stuff in Colorado. The G o p will never be able to effectively do the job of the Church, the Church needs to get out there! I PRAY everyone can get on the same page about the Pride issues. We have some serious problems happening at Pride that need to be addressed. Children are being abused on stage through Pride in Colorado. We all need to have a good conversation about these issues and develop a realistic plan on how to confront the issues together.

[@angelainamarie9656]

I frankly think people like you don't have the balls to confront us. But when you do it's your objectification and voyeurism that stands out the most.

[@angelainamarie9656]

Why is the GOP so obsessed with what other people do with their nether regions? What's with the voyeurism?
