Ellen Page questions anti-LGBT presidential candidate over barbeque
Inception star Ellen Page fired shots at presidential candidate Ted Cruz at the Iowa State Fair on Friday, questioning him about his position on LGBT rights.
Cruz spent the exchange steering the conversation away from LGBT rights to “religious liberty.”
Cruz adamantly opposes same-sex marriage and the LGBT lifestyle – even more so than others in the conservative party. He has referred to the legalization of same-sex marriage by the Supreme Court as “judicial tyranny.”
During their conversation, Page asked Cruz about the potential for LGBT employees losing their jobs due to their sexual orientation, to which Cruz replied: “Well, what we’re seeing right now is actually, we’re seeing Bible-believing Christians being persecuted.”
