During the CNN LGBTQ Town Hall last week, Sen. Elizabeth Warren delivered the viral moment of the evening when she was asked what she would say to someone on the campaign trail who might tell her, as someone who is old-fashioned, their faith teaches them that “marriage is between one man and one woman.”
Replied Warren, “Well, I’m going to assume it’s a guy who said that; and I’m gonna say, then just marry one woman. I’m cool with that.”
As the crowd roared in approval, the senator added, “Assuming you can find one.”

Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, who never misses a chance to embarrass himself, took to Twitter to troll Warren writing, “Vividly captures the condescension of elites & their incessant ridicule of Americans with traditional values. It elicits glee among celebrities & blue check brigade. But for the millions sick of being disrespected, it elicits support for fighting back, even in a crude or vulgar way.”

“Condescension?” “Ridicule?” Senator, try being LGBTQ in America someday if you want to talk ‘ridicule’ and ‘disrespect.’
You’ll recall during the 2016 Republican presidential primary, Donald Trump nicknamed Rubio ‘Little Marco,’ deriding him to the point that Rubio snapped and began mocking Trump’s ‘small hands’ on the campaign trail.
The Florida senator has since gone back to defending the man who famously announced he likes to grab women “by the p*ssy” because… ‘traditional values.’
Twitter was not about to let this guy, who has such little moral courage, get away with trolling Warren and her defense of marriage equality.
Just what “traditional values” are those, Marco? Those of the serial sex-abuser, rapist, racist, lying, traitorous, corrupt, criminal president? Or those that enable him, hypocritically spewing scripture while violating every commandment of every religion known to man?

Since I don’t have a blue check, Marco wants me to respond:
It’s hilarious hypocrisy that someone who mocked a presidential candidate on live TV for his micro-penis is now scolding other people about how unseemly it is to ridicule others.

Also, you’ve got a lot of nerve clutching your pearls at Warren’s joke here when your entire party spends its time crapping on anyone who lives in a city or has a bachelor’s degree as overprivileged snobs who can’t even feed themselves.

Dude, way to tell on yourself by describing hatred of gays as a “traditional value.”

So grabbing pussy, getting spanked by a porn star while your wife is pregnant, and faking orgasms in public, is now traditional family values? Didn’t know that. BTW, it doesn’t get more elite than needing a golden toilet. At least now we know why you need so much water, doucheboy

Marco, you are truly a fool. Crude and vulgar? That would be Trump. And guess what? There are millions of us who found solace in Ms. Warren’s pro-equal marriage defense.

“Elites” motherfucker you make $174,000 a year

Marco and the Religious Right hold the sanctity of marriage SO high that they can’t support gay marriage, but are totally cool with supporting a liar who’s NEVER upheld his marriage vows to any of his THREE wives and has broken most of the 10 Commandments. pic.twitter.com/FKgcfH5uPT

“Millions sick of being disrespected”?
You mean millions in the LGBTQ community who can legally be discriminated against? Who for years were ridiculed, ostracized, beaten & arrested – even murdered – for simply living & loving the way God made them?
Yes, 🏳️🌈 are sick of it.
