He's been open about his sexuality... it's no secret.

Now some on our side are pointing fingers and giggling at him.

Not a good look, DU...

We had plenty of fun mocking him for the last 2 weeks without touching his sexuality. It's not necessary and could be hurtful for some here.

Not much different than the post calling an overweight female GOP politician as a "cow" that was alerted and allowed to stand.

We're better than this.
