CHARLOTTE, NC (FOX 46) - A group says ‘Charlotte Pride’ is pushing them out of the Gay Pride Parade because they support President Trump.
"I’m very proud of my country, proud of my president, and was once proud of my community," said Brian Talbert, who said he’s proud to be gay and proud to be a Republican.
His truck has a Trump-Pence bumper sticker and 'Not a liberal' sign on the back window.
"I’m very proud of my vote. I don't regret my vote. I will vote for Donald Trump again. I'm proud of my president. I don't think I should be vilified because I’m proud of a U.S. president as an American."
Talbert said he and a fellow gay Republican sent in an application to Charlotte Pride so they could have a float in this year's Charlotte Pride Parade.
