I don't see how they can.
A bigger tent means a larger constituency.

In a striking act of defiance, just hours before a statewide ban came into force, Salt Lake City’s mayor moved to officially recognize the Pride, Transgender, and Juneteenth flags as city symbols. The decision highlights a firm stance on inclusion and visibility, even as restrictions on LGBTQ+ expression grow.
At a moment when debates around identity and representation are intensifying nationwide, the move signals clear support for LGBTQ+ communities and people of color—reaffirming a commitment to diversity, equality, and social progress.
