I believe Mike Pence, Jeffrey Sessions, and Tom Cotton (of gay therapy conversion fame) would do just that if it was in their power.
Liberal democrats do the same shit Spoletta. Bill and Hillary Clinton are no fans to the gay community like they lead people to believe. They only use them for political brownie points. After a lot of LGBT people voted for BillClinton, that SOB turned around screwed them over by signing Don't Ask, Don't Tell and then the Defense of Marriage Act which didn't seem to bother the liberals as much as Trump being elected into office.
Most straight people don't give a shit about gays anyway unless they can get something out of caring. How many ex-JWs left the organization because of the way it viewed or treated gays? Not many. Most left because of what was done to them personally, then they left and then picked up on the social justice issue concerning the LGBT community.
