    Gays for Trump might not have been individually popular, but there was a lot more “just because we’re gay doesn’t mean we’re liberal!” type shit going around at the time. Remember, Trump ran as the first president to support gay marriage, conservative LGBTQ was trying to be a thing. Yeah it might not be responsible for all of them, but it surely contributed. I’m not dismissing evidence, I’m looking at the context of times that would explain why the gayest RNC ever would cause a Grindr spike.
