No doubt. The Republicans have always been anti-gay. It's just that Trump done more than anyone ever has to bring them around on this issue.

I'll never forget the cheering and applause Thiel got from Republicans when he announced he was proud to be gay at the RNC. That was a pretty special moment.

He has a long record of being pro-LGBT and if he was going to backtrack on that to appease his supporters he would have done it before the election, not now after he already has their votes.
