Recently, Ellen Page was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. She did not refrain when asked about homophobia in today’s political climate. Being a part of the LGBTQ+ herself, she revealed to have dealt with plenty of intolerance. Page also makes some great points about how the Vice President is hurting those within the LGBTQ+ community.
