Bachmann Tops List of Trump's Anti-LGBT Advisory Board

The Washington Blade reports that former congresswoman Michele Bachmann tops the list of members of the newly announced anti-LGBT evangelical advisory board unveiled Tuesday by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

The 26 members of the board are a who's who of individuals who've sought to undermine LGBT rights.
