Donald Trump Likes Gays

Ever since since he called Rosie O’Donnell a big fat pig, I’ve had no use for Donald Trump.

I’ve never watched ‘The Apprentice’ or even ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ despite the participation of some of my faves like Cyndi Lauper and Joan Rivers.

Well now I have even less regard to this billionaire with the weird hairstyle.

He apparently is considering a presidential run for the Republican nomination and during a chat with Greta Van Susteren on Fox News Monday, Trump called himself a “conservative Republican” who was not in favor of same-sex marriage.

“New York is a place with lots of gays, and I think it is great,” he said. “But I’m not in favor of gay marriage.”

I’m always extra rankled when someone who has been married three times does not believe that same-sex couples deserve that same right.

While married to Ivana Trump, mother of his three eldest children, he very famously had an affair with Marla Maples. Eventually he married and divorced Maples after they had a child and he is currently married to Melania Knauss-Trump and they also have a child.

Donald Trump Authority Pose

Donald John Trump, Sr. is an American business magnate, socialite, author and television personality. He is the Chairman and CEO of the Trump Organization, a US-based real-estate developer. Trump is also the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts, which operates numerous casinos and hotels across the world. Trump's extravagant lifestyle and outspoken manner have made him a celebrity for years, a status amplified by the success of his NBC reality show, The Apprentice (where he serves as host and executive producer). Donald Trump is considered a possible candidate for President of the United States in 2012.

Trump is a known World Wrestling Entertainment fan and friend of WWE owner Vince McMahon. He has hosted two WrestleMania events in the Trump Plaza and has been an active participant in several of the shows. Trump's Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City was host to the 1991 WBF Championship (which was owned by WWE, known at the time as the "World Wrestling Federation."). Trump was interviewed by Jesse Ventura ringside at WrestleMania XX. He also appeared at WrestleMania 23 in the corner of Bobby Lashley who competed against Umaga with WWE Chairman McMahon in his corner, in a hair versus hair match, with either Trump or McMahon having their head shaved if their competitor lost. Lashley won the match, and he and Trump both proceeded to shave McMahon bald.

On June 15, 2009, as part of a storyline, McMahon announced on WWE Raw that he had 'sold' the show to Donald Trump. Appearing on screen, Trump confirmed it and declared he would be at the following commercial-free episode in person and would give a full refund to the people who purchased tickets to the arena for that night's show in the amount of USD $235,000. McMahon "bought back" Raw on June 22, 2009.
