Conservative Blogger Jim Hoft Comes Out After Orlando Attack, Tells Gays to \u2018Come Home\u2019 to the GOP<\/b><\/p>\n

\"hoft\"<\/p>\n

Ultra-conservative blogger Jim Hoft, a man<\/a> whom progressive media watchdog Media Matters<\/a> has called “the Dumbest Man on the Internet”<\/a> came out of the closet Monday, a day after the Orlando massacre, and invited fellow gays to “come home” to the Republican Party and elect Donald Trump as president:<\/a> “There is only one man<\/a> who can lead this nation and protect all gays<\/a> and all Americans. His name is Donald Trump,” he wrote. “In 2016 only one candidate will protect gays<\/a> from another Islamist attack.”<\/p>\n

Hoft is the owner of The Gateway Pundit<\/a>, a prominent right-wing, anti-Obama political blog, known for committing gaffes here and there. (Hoft also proudly announced on his blog that a group called LGBT Phoenix had endorsed Donald Trump on Twitter<\/a>, but the Twitter account turned out to be fake.)<\/p>\n

True to form, he went after President Obama, saying that he had lost it:<\/p>\n

After the deadliest Islamist attack on American soil since 9-11 Barack Obama blamed hatred and guns. His inability to called the attack what it is – Islamic jihad – has progressed from denial to psychosis. It’s never been more apparent than Sunday, when Barack was comparing the Pulse club attack to a movie theater shooting by a schizophrenic, that our poor president has lost his own grasp of reality.<\/p>\n

He also insulted some “leftwing gay<\/a> activists” who posted “ridiculous and ignorant remarks” about the attack, namely CNN commentator Sally Kohn, who “blamed all religions”  and blogger Perez Hilton who blamed the NRA.<\/p>\n

Hoft wrote that he came out to his family and friends in the 1980’s during the AIDS epidemic, a “scary time to be gay<\/a>.” But he never felt the need to come out publicly: “Like most gay<\/a> Americans, I don’t wear my sexuality on my sleeve. I go about my daily business.”<\/p>\n

After this week’s attack he felt compelled to come out publicly.<\/p>\n

I’ve been a conservative activist for years. But today I’m coming out as a conservative gay<\/a> activist. In the past few years I’ve built one of the most prominent conservative websites in America. I created The Gateway Pundit because I wanted to speak the truth. I wanted to expose the wickedness of the left. I was raised to love my country. Today I serve my country by defending her from the socialist onslaught. But last night at least 49 gays<\/a> were slaughtered at an Orlando club.<\/p>\n

Despite this obvious Islamic attack, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are still in denial. I can no longer remain silent as my gay<\/a> brothers and sisters are being slaughtered at dance clubs… I pray that gays<\/a> will come back home to the Republican Party – no more death. Dear God, please no more death.<\/p>\n

Hours after Hoft posted his coming out piece on both The Gateway Pundit and on the equally conservative political blog Breitbart News Network<\/a>, it was time for the Charles Johnson, founder of Little Green Footballs<\/a>, another political blog to start the fact-checking process:<\/p>\n

The idea that gays<\/a> should “come home” to the Republican Party is so delusional it beggars description; this is the party whose presidential candidates openly endorse a far right pastor who thinks gays should be executed<\/a>, a party that works ceaselessly to deny basic rights to LGBT people, a party that has tried for years to pass amendments to the US Constitution that would permanently ban gay<\/a> marriage, etc., etc. The list of Republican anti-gay<\/a> positions is practically endless.<\/p>\n

For Hoft to say he “tries not to harm anyone” and wants to “speak the truth,” well — wow. Again, this is the guy<\/a> who for years has been propagating every fake and\/or dishonest right wing conspiracy theory that bubbles out of the fever swamp, a guy<\/a> who spread a completely phony story<\/a> that the cop who shot Michael Brown in Ferguson had suffered major injuries after being attacked by Brown and used a crudely altered version of a CT scan<\/a> to do it, a guy<\/a> who often cites white supremacist websites<\/a> and has even plagiarized them<\/a> for his crummy right wing blog, a guy<\/a> who often refers to black protesters with dehumanizing terms like “roaches<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Right wing plot twist! After Years of Ugly Anti-Gay Rhetoric, Blogger Jim Hoft (@gatewaypundit<\/a>) Announces He’s Gay t.co\/Jrgm8Im13C<\/a><\/p>\n

— Charles Johnson (@Green_Footballs) June 13, 2016<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Johnson wraps it up with a comment from a Breitbart reader, who was not exactly thrilled to find out that right-wing author Hoft is (surprise!) one of the gays<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You “pray”, yet call<\/a> God a liar by trying to justify your homosexuality. God is very clear that homosexuality is an ACTION and an abomination in His sight. So according to God, there is no “gay<\/a>”. Only a sinful act that He hates. As for me, the tragedy of it all is the 49 people who woke up in Hell yesterday because they knew not the Lord.<\/p>\n
