The only response from Mike Pence is from his spokeswoman who stated that the claim is completely false. The claim made by gay figure skater and LGBT rights championioner Adam Rippon was in response to commenting that he was not looking forward to meeting Mike Pence, someone who supported “ex-gay” or conversion therapy, as is tradition for olympic athletes to meet the president and vice president. This is almost a blatant lie by the spokeswoman, Pence voted against a bill that would have suppressed conversion therapy, supported the military keeping the homophobic “don’t ask don’t tell” policy, or replacing it with the older policy banning LGBT individuals from serving. This is nothing more than another lie from a member of the Trump Administration, one who has done nothing but support the destruction of LGBT rights.
