These are the A-Gays of Washington, D.C. They’re (mostly) out, they’re proud (to work for President Trump) and they have big jobs inside (or alongside) this administration, wielding influence all over town.

While looking at law schools, I went to a DC gay bar and ended up asking for a guy’s number. He instead gave me his business card and asked me to “shoot [him] an email” at the House GOP address listed on the card. He then grabbed my ass. I decided not to go to Georgetown.

The writer made it clear that the first guy he interviewed was not the kind of guy you'd ask about pronouns. So I'm pretty sure he's uninterested in trans issues. And were there no females associated with the group at all, except Melania for some reason.
