LCR, Trump Unity Coalition Take Steps To Welcome RFK Jr.’s LGBT Campaign Into the MAGA Movement

On the heels of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s historic endorsement of President Donald Trump, Log Cabin Republicans is taking steps to engage Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s supporters and his targeted audiences and bring them into the Trump Unity coalition.

"Bobby Kennedy's campaign was appealing to the moderates, Independents, and disaffected Democrats - including many LGBT voters - that hold the key to winning this election," Log Cabin Republicans President Charles Moran said in a statement. "Between Bobby's endorsement of Trump and Harris' radical Left record, these voters are more persuadable than ever to vote for Trump in 2024. As a key stakeholder in the Trump Unity coalition, the Log Cabin Republicans is proud to partner with Kennedy's former LGBT leadership team and execute the hard but necessary work to continue engaging these voters to support the Trump-Vance ticket in November."

The initial effort will include:

  • Including members of the Kennedy leadership team on to the Trump Unity steering committee to ensure their authentic voice and perspective is represented in outreach efforts.
  • Advancing policy platforms building on the MAGA/MAHA movement to expand liberty, freedom, and health for LGBT and ALL Americans.
  • Hiring a top Kennedy LGBT surrogate, Ronnie Kroell, to help oversee the rapid expansion of our coalition and drive social media content to persuadable audiences around the branding "Trump-Curious."

"I am incredibly excited to join Log Cabin Republicans as part of their coalition-building team at Trump Unity," Ronnie Kroell said. "Together, we will unify under this bold new vision for a government that works for all Americans. As someone who has championed visibility and inclusion through my work with the Friend Movement and my experiences in the entertainment industry, I believe deeply in the power of dialogue and cooperation. Joining forces allows me to further these values into the political arena, advocating for the LGBT community and ensuring that every voice is heard. Together, with the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his support of our next president, Donald J. Trump, we have an opportunity to bridge divides and create meaningful change."

Log Cabin Republicans is the nation's oldest and largest organization of LGBT Republicans and conservatives and their allies. With over 80 chapters in 40 states, it provides the backbone of the larger movement to engage the LGBT community and all fair-minded Americans in an inclusive conservative majority.

This year, Log Cabin Republicans has deployed a field-team in top target states to connect our members and supporters to conservative causes and campaigns to build a strong Republican majority in the House and Senate and to return Donald Trump to the White House for a second term.
