Are Donald Trump and JD Vance drag queens?

The Republican party, known for its strong stance against drag queens, is being represented by a candidate who wears more orange makeup than any drag queen and a vice-presidential candidate known for his heavy use of eyeliner. This raises an interesting question: If someone paints their face for a performance and dances, does that qualify as drag? Trump is known for his heavily made-up appearance and his dancing at rallies, sometimes to the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” So, could Trump be considered a drag queen? And if so, shouldn’t Republicans follow their own advice and protect children from drag performances? Why, then, do people bring their children to see Trump in drag? Do they think they’re bringing their child to see Ronald McDonald?

Their rabid women-hater stances are a tell.

Who they love is their business. Who they hate and go after is another matter, entirely.

always kills me. They hear "Christian Association", but they don't hear the lyrics about guys picking up young guys at the Y. A gay anthem.
Shallow, shallow, shallow. The Right sees only the surface. Like with Born In The USA.

Hopefully no impressionable kiddos in the store to witness this horror. Was Focus On The Family aware of this monstrosity?!?

Please don't denigrate drag. Cheeto and Shady Boy are sociopathic, narcissistic buffoons.
