Self-appointed prophet Cindy Jacobs is
urging followers to vote for Donald Trump to stop the U.S. from
“polluting” other nations with gay pride flags.
According to Right Wing Watch, Jacobs
and her husband Mike urged an audience in Ohio last week to vote
Trump in order to stop the United States from promoting LGBT rights
abroad.
The couple made their remarks at the
church run by Frank Amedia, a strong Trump supporter.
Mike Jacobs showed the congregation a
picture of the rainbow flag flying outside the U.S. embassy in Costa
Rica. “That embassy represents you. Are they representing you
when they do that?” he
rhetorically asked.
Cindy Jacobs said that local Christian
leaders “were all complaining to us about America and what we're
doing. How the ambassadors that were chosen were homosexual couples
that were put in and sent into all the schools of their country, even
though it was against their laws to have same-sex marriages and they
were mad at us because we're polluting their nations.”
“It matters who you vote for because
who you vote for will put ambassadors in that will be our voice in
the nations,” she continued. “So we began shooting off emails,
Mike did and I did, to people we know in the U.S. and the next day
that gay flag was down.”
(The U.S. ambassador to Costa Rica, S.
Fitzgerald Haney, is not gay.)
