    I mean, I'd argue this should be celebrated, not used as a burn. I get the angle on hypocrisy here, but framing LGBT support as a mistake or flaw, as unintentional as it may be, doesn't really sit right, imo.

      I really do wish the headline had pointed out the hypocrisy on her part and not with phrasing that reads as being pro-LGBT is bad.

      Double-edged sword: The title is belittling to LGBT readers, but also Boobert's simple-minded base will use this as reason to drop support for her.
