Ellen Page Confronts Ted Cruz on Gay Rights at Iowa State Fair (ABC News)
While Sen. Ted Cruz was grilling pork chops at the Iowa State Fair today, actress Ellen Page, wearing a hat and sunglasses, snuck her way up to the grill and asked the GOP presidential candidate about "the persecution of gays in the workplace and LGBT rights."
ABC News caught the exchange.
"What about the question about LGBT people being fired for being gay-trans?" Page asked.
"Well, what we’re seeing right now, we’re seeing Bible-believing Christians being persecuted for living according to their faith," Cruz responded.
