Why Lea DeLaria Thinks Vice President Mike Pence Thinks About Gay People "Too Much"
"Orange Is The New Black" actress Lea Delaria assesses the Trump administration on its handling of LGBTQ issues. Unsurprisingly, she's not a fan.
When asked what grade she would give the president on his time in office, DeLaria says "a negative 20." But it's not just President Trump. "Mike Pence is so vehemently anti-gay. In fact, I think he thinks about us too much."
DeLaria also discusses the impact "Orange Is The New Black" is having on political discourse in America, specifically when it comes to female incarceration. She says it's important because "we're actually having a discussion."
