Because I never get tired of that!
He said a lot of things but I was not aware that he said anything negative about the LGBTQ community.
Trump? No hasn't been as directly hostile towards GLBT people quite as much as he has been towards hispanic or muslim people. I can see how easy it would be to not notice his more subtle hatred of gays, but he's been pretty consistantly against gay marriage. He's stated this stance multiple times throughout multiple sources and interviews; here's a few of examples:

Not to mention Pence, who is a real piece of work. Besides his obvious stance against gay marriage, Pence has also been an advocate of conversion therapy for GLBT people (despite the fact that zero credible sources have found any benefit to said therapy).
