Gay porn star Sean Harding declared on Twitter that a “homophobic” Republican U.S. senator was known widely to the escort world, leading to the #LadyG to trend all day on Saturday.
“There is a homophobic republican senator who is no better than Trump who keeps passing legislation that is damaging to the lgbt and minority communities,” Harding tweeted. “Every sex worker I know has been hired by this man. Wondering if enough of us spoke out if that could get him out of office?”
