Donald Trump, please stop.

In a candidate speech in Greensboro, North Carolina, on Wednesday the Republican presidential nominee spoke at length about Saudi Arabia, women and the LGBT community.

Or, as he refers to the latter, "the gays":

For the gays out there… ask the gays and ask the people, ask the gays what they think and what they do in not only in Saudi Arabia but all these other countries.

The “gays” as he so eloquently put it, responded on Twitter and the ensuing take-down is a lesson for Trump: leave the LGBT community alone.
