Despite what you've heard — or Watch In the Cut (2003)rather, have notheard — from the White House, June is Pride Month.
To celebrate and show support for the LGBTQ community, Twitter has released a custom heart emoji, Instagram added some fierce AF stickers to its app, and Google even dedicated a Doodle to the honor the American artist and LGBTQ rights activist who crated the rainbow flag. President Trump, however, has done nothing.
We're already two days into June and have heard complete silence from the White House in regards to Pride. Needless to say, people have definitely noticed -- and they're not happy about it.

You'd think a man who tweeted about the LGBTQ community that one time, promising to fight for their freedoms and beliefs during his campaign, would be attentive and eager to celebrate a month dedicated to just that. So far, though, nothing.

It's been a big week for Trump, what with attempting to recover from apparently misspelling "coverage" on Twitter and withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, so this other extremely important fact may have just slipped his mind.
Whatever the reasoning, people are reacting to the White House's Pride Month silence, sharing both their disappointment in the president and support for the LGBTQ community on Twitter.

In the president's absence, other politicians and organizations like Nancy Pelosi and the Human Rights Campaign have taken it upon themselves to publicly proclaim Pride Month.

It should be noted that Trump's daughter Ivanka tweeted a message of support to the LGBTQ community on June 1. People were quick to recall the fact Trump has taken controversial action against LGBTQ people in the past, such as helping roll back the right for trans students to use bathrooms based on gender identity. Not to mention picking Mike Pence as his vice president.

Ivanka did make the effort, which is cool, but she's still not the leader of the country and effectively has no official power.
